Hyland Estates - Riesling Old Vine 2023

The remote, historic Hyland Vineyard is nestled in the foothills of the Oregon Coast Range in the McMinnville AVA. Pioneering wine legends, Dick Erath and Charles Coury undertook the colossal first plantings in 1971 with cool-climate, Alsatian varieties. A few years of careful tending resulted in 45 acres of own-rooted Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling and Gewürztraminer. Today, Hyland Vineyard is one of the Willamette Valley's oldest and largest vineyards, spanning 185 planted acres on volcanic Jory soil at elevations that range between at 650'-900'. Hyland Estates winery produces a boutique selection of wines crafted exclusively from Hyland Vineyard, from the best of these iconic vines. Additionally, this vineyard continues to be the source of fruit for many top scoring wines from some of Oregon's most recognized producers.

Stone fruit, ripe melon and candied orange on the nose that mix in with bright, crisp citrus and honeycomb notes on the attack. The back palate mixes racy notes of white pineapple and Asian Pear that finish with a balanced salinity.
