"This powerful and rich dry wine ripples with lime marmalade, floral honey and fresh sage aromas. Wonderful balance of creaminess, floral honey character and citrusy acidity on the very compact yet bright medium- to full-bodied palate. Huge, with a precise finish. At no point is the alcohol directly perceptible, although it must be well over 14%. Drink from release. Screw cap."

"Harvested in November with good botrytis, the 2024 Noble Dry Riesling The Knoll Lahoma Vineyard shows a deep golden color and opens with an intense pop of reduction. Potent, powerful and concentrated, it's an amplified expression of The Knoll with an extra measure of salty funk. Phenolic and unctuous (especially for a dry wine), the 2024 weaves together notes of orange oil, white pepper, white truffle, candlewax and chalk, finishing with a gentle but noticeable warmth. This is a bit cerebral and esoteric, but it will certainly have its fans."
