HillCrest Vineyard Umpqua Valley Riesling

Umpqua Valley, USA

Estate Riesling from Oregon's oldest continually producing winery, established by Richard Sommer in 1961. The Umpqua Valley's warmer and drier climate compared to the Willamette Valley produces Riesling of greater body and richness, with distinctive orchard fruit character tempered by the Umpqua River Valley's elevation and cooling marine influence.

Pairing intelligence

• main: Off-dry Riesling's stone fruit and acidity cut through crab butter perfectly
• main: Residual sugar and vibrant acidity tame chilli heat while fruit mirrors curry aromatics
