Our Mora 2023 Dry Riesling is selected from a single block called Maia in our Felton Terraces vineyard, where vines planted in 2001 continue to produce fruit of exceptional character. A cool spring led to a slow start, but a hot, dry summer ensured even ripness across the bunches. The result is a beautifully expressive Riesling with fine florals, mineral purity and bright acidity balanced by a delicate hint of residual sugar.
Hand-picked in the cool of the morning to preserve freshness, the fruit was whole-bunch pressed to stainless steel. The juice was inoculated and fermented at cool temperatures to retain the natural vibrancy and purity of Riesling. A slow, six-week fermentation built complexity and fine texture. The wine was then aged on lees for six months before being racked and prepared for bottling.
