The wines this quarter are:
2017 Rosé, Pinot Noir
Strawberry, watermelon, and pomegranate fruit flavors burst from this wine. With less than .5% residual sugar, this wine finishes fairly dry. This is 100% Pinot Noir grown in the Wind Whistle Vineyard, which produces very ripe fruit giving the wine a round, luscious mouth feel. The Wind Whistle Vineyard on Leelanau Peninsula is farmed by Spencer's longtime friend, Doug Mathies. The Wind Whistle block was planted in 2006, formerly a sweet cherry orchard with all day sun exposure. This special spot features sandy soil with great water drainage and is only one-half mile from Lake Michigan, extending its growing season but staying cool enough to bring out the brightest fruit flavors.
2016 Chardonnay, RLS Reserve
This Chardonnay is an exquisite example harmony between dirt, plant, winemaker and cooper. The vines brought forth delicately ripe fruit with 22 Degrees Brix of sugar ensuring a perfect alcohol balance for a wine that seeks food for its true expression. More significant is that the roots pushed all of the mineral content from the sandy loam soils right into the berries.
2016 Riesling, Smokey Hollow
The morning mists in the Smokey Hollow Vineyard roll back as early morning sunshine warms the vines and ripens our Riesling grapes. Formerly home to dark, sweet cherry trees, this clay and gravel soil now succors heavy clusters of this classic, cool-climate grape. Exceptional growing conditions yield fruit with notes of crisp citrus and hints of pure minerals.
