Tasting notes
The 2018 Riesling Zweiter Zweieiiger Zwilling Cole Ranch is the same wine as the Erster Zweieiiger Zwilling, except the fermentation was stopped with 39 grams of residual sugar, which gives the wine an extra level of dimension and breadth. Cream soda, orchard fruit, sage and floral-infused honey notes flesh out effortlessly. This is a gorgeous, off-dry white for pairing with richer dishes.

The 2018 Riesling Erster zweieiiger Zwilling Cole Ranch comes from own-rooted, dry-farmed vines planted in 1973 in the Cole Ranch AVA in Mendocino County—the smallest appellation in the US and a monopole, owned entirely by Esterlina Vineyard & Winery (a Sterling Family property). It opens with notions of lime zest and beeswax over citrus blossom, honey, candied peach and petrichor. Light-bodied, dry and textural, it’s mineral-driven in the mouth with wicked juicy acidity and a long, racy finish.
