Winemaking Notes

Josef Chromy Riesling 2022 is crafted from Riesling grapes picked at optimal ripeness in early April from Block 9 of the Josef Chromy Relbia Vineyard. The grapes were gently pressed under CO2 cover to help preserve delicate aroma compounds of jasmine and citrus blossom, bath salts, lime and fresh cut pear. The free run juice was highly clarified to further support the pristine aromatic profile of the finished wine. A cool fermentation took place thereafter in a stainless steel tank, lasting about two weeks and monitored daily to ensure great fruit concentration and texture supported by mouthwatering racy acidity. Upon completion, the wine was left to settle before being racked off its gross lees and allowed to further develop for several months before bottling, creating pale lemon-green colour with abundance of citrus fruit flavours and salty, briny finish. The savoury undertones of bay leaf and green olive showcase the exceptional quality of Block 9 Relbia Vineyard fruit.
