𝗣𝗮𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲: medium-plus body with dark fruit, firm but polished tannins, fresh acidity, and a dry, slightly savory finish!

🇨🇦 BC 🤝🏼 Ontario 🇨🇦

Faced with crop loss at their BC estate, Tantalus turned challenge into creativity. For their 2024 vintage - one of the most difficult in their 20-year history - they reached across the country, sourcing Riesling from top growers in Ontario’s Grimsby Hillside and Picone vineyards 🙌🏼

The result? A cool-climate collab that still feels true to their style!

𝐎𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐬𝐞: pale straw, lemon oil, white peach, wildflowers, chalk, and a touch of ginger!

𝐎𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞: clementine and grapefruit up front, with candied lime peel and crunchy pear in the mid, finishing dry, stony, and crisp!

Head Buzz: 4/5 - 28 bucks, purchased @ Tantalus Winery 👌🏽
