Elevation St. Urban Vineyard Riesling

The Elevation St. Urban Vineyard Riesling from Vineland Estates Winery is a testament to Canadian winemaking heritage, crafted in a classic Mosel Kabinett style. This distinctive white wine hails from the Niagara Escarpment, a sub-region of the Niagara Peninsula in Ontario, Canada. The grapes are exclusively sourced from the historic St. Urban Vineyard, specifically Field D, where some of Canada's oldest Riesling vines were first planted in 1979. These original vines were brought to Ontario from Germany's renowned Weingut St. Urbans-Hof in the Mosel, lending a profound connection to its European roots. Vineland Estates Winery, located on the Twenty Mile Bench, is celebrated for producing wines that express the unique minerality of the ancient, sea-born soils of the Niagara Escarpment. The 2022 vintage is particularly noted for its profound nose and a palate that beautifully balances texture, intensity, and verve, promising excellent aging potential.
