– Robert Parker Wine AdvocateThe long, warm, dry fall of 2014 extended hang times for all of the varietals we farm. Typically we will make one or two botrytis-specific picks in November to form the bulk of our single vineyard dessert wines. But with little to no weather pressure to pull our botrytis-affected Riesling, we extended our late harvests over multiple picks. One result is this Riesling sourced entirely from our Josef Vineyard. It shows the site’s typically broad, tropical acidities but with a lithe agility on the palate.
Underpinned by excellent structure, this dessert wine is fantastic with all manner of goat cheeses, fruit tarts, and spicy charcuterie.

– Wine Spectator Magazine2013 featured extended hang times across each of our varietals. A cool growing season gave way to a long, warm autumn where sugars climbed gradually and acidities held steady even into our botrytis picks. The Noble Select dessert wines from this vintage offer zestier, citrus blossom aromas with a mouth-coating concentration reminiscent of maple sap.
This wine will cellar into the 2050s and beyond.

Noble Select Riesling Magdalena Vineyard 2015
93 Points
– Robert Parker's Wine AdvocateThe final, 100% botrytis picks from our Magdalena Vineyard evince the structure, topicality, and mouth-coating waxiness we associate with that site’s other Riesling picks. At the extreme sugar concentration achieved with additional hangtime, the Noble Select picks from this site are spice-rich and acid-driven. A citrus flower and ginger nose open for densely packed flavors of yellow apple crumble and mango puree.
This wine will cellar comfortably for decades. To enjoy now we recommend cheese & charcuterie plates, spicy pork rillette, and peach pie.
