About This Wine

Trefethen Family Vineyards

Dry Riesling

The Oak Knoll District of Napa Valley is slightly lesser known than other appellations in the area, yet produces some of the most beautiful wines out of the region. Due to proximity to San Pablo Bay, Oak Knoll boasts a cooler and more moderate climate than typical Napa Valley, making it an ideal place for wines like this Dry Riesling. Harvested at the end of October, grapes had long hang time and a slow ripening process that lead to complex flavor development. A classic Riesling profile featuring aromas of bold florals, flavors of ripe stone fruit, and bright acidity makes this an easy drinker for all seasons.

Wine Region

Oak Knoll District

Oak Knoll District

Home to legendary Zinfandels and delicate Chardonnays, Oak Knoll is one of Napa Valley's most prestigious sub-regions. Vines are planted on the valley floor, where breezes from San Pablo Bay keep grapes refreshingly acidic. This is one of the coolest parts of Napa, so grapes that struggle elsewhere in the valley—like Riesling and Pinot Noir—can thrive. It is also home to many Bordeaux-style blends made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Malbec.
