Have you experienced a vertical tasting? The vertical tasting concept comes from the professional wine world, where sommeliers or winemakers taste through a consecutive number of vintages of the same wine to look for nuances in character from each growing year and how the wine develops with age. This builds a deeper appreciation of the wine itself, giving you a sense of the terroir and season's growing conditions as it fluctuates through harvests that are warm, cold, wet, dry, early and late, for example. 
 
Experience this for yourself with our Riesling Vertical, a six-bottle collection with vintages from 2014 through 2018. Each bottle offers distinct characteristics, from classic to experimental, promising a unique journey with every sip.
