Tasting Notes:
PDFThe 2024 Poet’s Leap Riesling offers striking aromatics, pure flavors and delicious acidity. The wine is exceptionally vibrant and varietally expressive, with delicate aromas of white blossoms, bright citrus, and minerality. Lively and precise, with a generous finish and beautifully balanced acidity, it is perhaps the finest expression of Poet’s Leap to date.
Vineyards
The 2024 Poet’s Leap Riesling was sourced equally from the White Bluffs and Yakima Valley AVAs. Fruit from White Bluffs contributes a rounded texture, bright acidity, and notes of white peach. Riesling from Yakima Valley brings citrus, minerality, and additional lift, creating a wine that is both vibrant and beautifully layered.
