Charles Smith , who unleashed Kungfu Girl on the wine world, returns with the next chapter. Like a great sequel, Blossom Fury lives up to the legend and opens a bold new page in his Riesling story. Blossom Fury is no wallflower. Fierce, a little mysterious, a little seductive, and impossible to ignore.
The next step in Charles Smith’s Riesling journey. This wine is electric. Aromas and flavors of golden raspberry, white peach, guava, passion fruit, and alpine strawberry lead into a silky texture with notes of nectarine, sweet cream, and a hint of seashell-like minerality. Bursting with pure Blossom Fury.
Winemaking
6 tons per acre. Native yeast fermentation. 100% whole cluster pressed and fermented in stainless steel tanks. Aged 10 months on the lees in stainless steel.
Vineyard
Evergreen Vineyard (100%). Planted in 1998 by Jerry Milbrandt, the vineyard sits along steep cliffs above the Columbia River in the Ancient Lakes AVA. The site is cooled by strong river influence and features soils of fragmented basalt, gravel, silt, and caliche deposited during the Ice Age floods. Like all Milbrandt vineyards, Evergreen is farmed with sustainable practices. The site consistently produces fruit with striking mineral character and vibrant acidity, a balance highly prized by winemakers.
