Cellar Notes: Harvested at peak ripeness and aged seven months on lees for added texture. This medium-dry Riesling is light, expressive, and equally enjoyable now or with time in the cellar.

Terroir Notes: Ten Hands Vineyard faces the cool East Bay, situated on the northeastern shore of Old Mission Peninsula. The soil is sandy loam with mixed concentrations of clay and gravel. The glacier movements mixed the soil, so it both drains well, has very little concentrated sand, contains moderate humus, and is slightly alkaline in pH. For fruits, including grapes, this is ideal. Tom and Claudine Petzold enhance the soil with annual compost additions by planting a vast mix of grasses and legumes in the row middles. Dave Bos is passionate about biodyanmic viticulture. Before moving to Michigan, he managed the farming and consulted on many biodynamic certified vineyards in California including Grgich Hills. Now he is introducing organic, biodynamic and regenerative practices to growers like the Petzold family.
