As the only one of the six noble grapes to originate from Germany, Riesling has carved out a unique identity in the world of wine. Hailing from the Rheingau region, where it remains the most widely planted grape today, Riesling is celebrated for its captivating aromas and is often hailed by wine aficionados as the premier white grape variety globally. Known for its adaptability, Riesling thrives in cooler climates and is incredibly expressive of its terroir. Even slight changes in climate can yield dramatically different wines, showcasing the grape's mercurial nature.

Riesling is cherished for its high acidity and distinctive mineral qualities, delivering a bouquet of floral notes alongside luscious orchard fruits like apricot and peach. The specific flavor profile can vary significantly depending on the growing region.

In North America, California stands out as a prominent producer of Riesling, with the grape ranking just behind Chardonnay. The California wine regions have gained acclaim for their exceptional Riesling, benefiting from long, sun-drenched days that foster intense flavor development, coupled with cool evenings that help maintain essential acidity. California Riesling typically presents a richer body and more pronounced fruit characteristics compared to its German and French counterparts.

Our VineCo California Riesling is a delightful light-bodied wine, bursting with vibrant aromas of green apple and citrus, accented by a mineral undertone. This off-dry white wine has no oak influence and boasts an approachable alcohol content of 12%.

The VineCo Original Riesling is the kind of wine that brightens any occasion. Its cheerful and lively character is sure to lift your spirits. As the enticing aromas waft from the glass and the refreshing acidity dances on your palate, it’s hard not to smile. Pair this delightful wine with seafood dishes like prawns or fresh crab, or enjoy it alongside rich cuts of pork belly served with choucroute for a truly memorable experience.
