2018 BLOCK TWELVE RIESLING

CGT Eclectic wines are vintage dated, small production wines. From eccentric blends to hands-on harvesting practices to vineyard-specific bottlings, each wine tells a unique story.

TASTING NOTES

Block 12 is our prized little vineyard recognized for producing outstanding quality grapes. Hand-picked with loads of flavor, we cool fermented and steady aged in stainless steel allowing this wine to show off juicy fruit-forward aromatics, pronounced citrus and a robust mouthfeel. Made in the style we see fit, this hand-crafted, small production wine exemplifies our 45-year commitment to making extraordinary Riesling.
