Wine Description:
J. Lohr Vineyards & Wines Late Harvest White Riesling is a superb expression of the Arroyo Seco AVA in Monterey County, California. This wine emerges from a collaborative venture with Michael Griva, where Riesling vines were planted on gravelly, sandy loam mesas near the Arroyo Seco River. These well-drained soils, rich in cobbles, provide an ideal terroir for Riesling. Utilizing Laffort VL 1 yeast, the juice undergoes fermentation in 55-gallon stainless steel barrels for four months, with lees stirring every two weeks to enhance complexity. The result is a luscious, well-balanced wine with a residual sugar content of 97 g/L. J. Lohr's Late Harvest White Riesling delights with its vibrant acidity and rich, sweet flavors, offering a beautifully crafted dessert wine experience.
