Our 2024 Riesling aligns with the most fundamental qualities of Nova Scotia wines: refreshing, energized by natural acidity, and, more importantly, an ageing ability measured in decades. Created in the light, off-dry style of German Kabinett wines, this new vintage is one to try. Often praised as a favourite for many wine enthusiasts, Riesling is a highly-aromatic, cool-climate-loving, ever-versatile variety known for producing a wide array of wine styles and pairing with just about any fare. 

 

TASTING NOTES

In the glass, this vintage reveals a luminous pale gold with a glimmering green highlight. The nose opens with vibrant aromas of lime zest and sea breeze, layered with wildflower honey, chamomile, and a wide variety of meadow herbs. Subtle hints of boxwood, elderflower, and blackcurrant blossom mingle with a chalky, stony undertow and a delicate vegetal fragrance, while fermentation notes add an early-stage lift. On the palate, an energetic burst of citrus unfolds with concentrated intensity, carrying through zesty lime, crisp green apple, and bittersweet herbal nuances. A faintly oily texture supports flavours of white peach and citrus. The finish is long and vibrant, marked by invigorating acidity.

FURTHER NOTES

The 2024 season will be remembered as one of rare balance and beauty. Record warmth and a historic dry spell defined the summer, pushing ripeness to new heights while preserving the natural freshness that defines Nova Scotia wines. With 1,240 growing degree days—well above the 10-year average—and remarkably little rainfall through the ripening months, the grapes matured slowly and evenly, concentrating both flavour and fragrance. These conditions were particularly favourable to Riesling, which can struggle with excessive acidity and leaner body in cooler vintages, but in this exceptional vintage benefited from the dry and warm weather to reach a level of ripeness and aromatic expression unseen before in Nova Scotia.
