Note di degustazione
Winemakers Tom Barry and Ben Marx. TA 7.4 g/l, pH 2.92. So pale. Direct, relatively straightforward now, this needs 5 years or more to start to develop the more complex characters seen in the 2015. Citrus acidity, mineral notes, fills and broadens in the mouth – lots of potential here. Floral notes of lavender and jasmine starting to emerge. Released 12 months ago with 60% of the vintage held back. (AWH)

The 2024 The Florita Riesling is tense and tightly coiled, with lemon zest, beeswax, green apple, cheesecloth, white pepper and shaved fennel. I find this to be quite a compact and savory iteration of the Florita, far less floral and talc-like than other years. I am looking to the acid drive and the phenolic presence for direction here, and both suggest that patience may be rewarded. 12.4% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
The 2024 Riesling The Florita is taut and punchy with its embryonic aromas of lime leaf, preserved lemon and lemon thyme. This has impressive density of flavor, with a compact core of intense citrus flavors elevated by lacy grip over a long, sinewy finish. Beautifully composed for the long haul.
