Washington Riesling
Chaberton Estate Winery
2024 Riesling
Yakima Valley, Washington
Bright, vibrant, and beautifully aromatic, our 2024 Riesling showcases the exceptional quality of fruit from Upland Vineyards in Washington’s renowned Yakima Valley. Produced as part of our special 2024 replacement wines following the devastating winter freeze that impacted vineyards throughout the Okanagan Valley, this Riesling reflects our commitment to crafting expressive, high-quality wines while remaining true to the Chaberton style.
Fermented in stainless steel to preserve its vibrant aromatics and natural freshness, this wine offers a harmonious balance of lively acidity, subtle sweetness, and remarkable length. The result is an elegant, off-dry Riesling that is both refreshing and beautifully food-friendly.
