Charles Baker has been making Picone Vineyard Riesling since 2005. One of Ontario's iconic Rieslings, the 2021 is a reminder of why it has earned a passionate following. Aromas of dried herbs and spring blossoms are mingled within wisps of petrol. Expect flavours of stone fruit with lemon embraced by racy acidity, creating a yin and yang tension that is perfectly harmonious with the off-dry style.
