Sky Vineyards Mt. Veeder Riesling 2022 CS20230516 fruitcake and an enticing caramelSky Vineyards' inaugural Riesling release arrives from vines grafted in 2018 on Mount Veeder's volcanic slopes. The dry, medium bodied wine captures earthy minerality from red volcanic soils at 2,100 feet on an east facing exposure.
