      The 2022 Riesling is from Nk’Mip Vineyard in Oliver. It was picked on November 3 and received at the Cavallotti Lodge on November 5. The grapes were picked later than desired due to a shortage of harvest bins. As a result, the Riesling arrived somewhat over-ripe and will likely need an acid addition. Next year we hope to purchase a few more harvest bins to avoid this issue.
