2019 Barncat Vineyard Estât Dry Riesling
This is the first vintage of Barncat released since we took over management of the farm. The government will only let us call it “Estate” if it is fermented on site. Therefore, we present our first vintage of “Estât Riesling”.
This stuff is a lightning bolt of electric lemonade. If you recall the insane acidity of the 2019 Acid Freak, that should give you a good idea. It makes picpoul taste like a 90’s California Chardonnay. If there was ever a fresh seafood wine, this is it.
Like all our other wines, it was wild yeast fermented in neutral oak. Other than a very small amount of sulfite, absolutely nothing was added to this wine. Unfiltered and unfined.
