This Riesling comes from the Underwood Mountain Vineyard, in the Columbia Gorge Appellation of Washington. This is an Icewine, meaning that the grapes have been allowed to freeze on the vine, resulting in a pressed juice heavily concentrated in sugars, acids, and flavors. Ice wines typically have a high residual sugar when finished, but still have a refreshing finish due to the extreme acidity. This Riesling has a high TA of 1.32 g/l, which will be more than necessary to balance the sugar content left over from the initial 37 Brix. The high levels of sugar, alcohol, and acidity can create a beautifully balanced wine which can be savored years after bottling.

Yeast Recommendations

Below please find some notes associated with our recommended yeast strains for use with this fruit. It is important to note that any yeast will in fact perform the fermentation, however these strains have consistently performed well and produced flavors that our customers have been very happy with. To that end, the "correct" yeast strain is simply the one that sounds to you as though it will make the flavors that you are looking for in your wine.

You can add the yeast strain of your choice from the "You Might Also Need" section below. We also strongly recommend the use of the additive pack that you will see listed in this section as it will help enhance the quality of the wine you produce. Order one packet of yeast and one additive pack per pail of must or juice.
