Ojai Vineyard 2022 Kick On Ranch Riesling: Santa Barbara’s Vibrant Coastal Treasure
Experience the exhilarating character of Central Coast California with Ojai Vineyard’s acclaimed 2022 Riesling from Kick On Ranch vineyard. This Santa Barbara gem delivers a vibrant aromatic symphony – think bright lychee and zesty grapefruit lifted by delicate honeyed florals and a subtle hint of classic Riesling petrol complexity. Celebrated with 91 Points by Jeb Dunnuck for its superb balance and refreshing juiciness.
Winemaker Adam Tolmach crafts a truly distinctive expression where cool stony minerality dances with exotic tropical allure. Imagine sipping this crisp white wine under palm trees: layers of white tea steeped with citrus peels and lemongrass unfold into captivating ginger blossom and plumeria notes. The palate thrills with penetrating lime zest and soursop vibrancy balanced by softer golden tones of loquat and juicy pluots. High yet perfectly integrated acidity creates an electrifying freshness culminating in a crystalline mineral finish – pure refreshment in every glass.
Beyond its immediate appeal as a lively aperitif or perfect partner for seafood tacos and spicy Asian cuisine (13% ABV), this age-worthy Riesling promises graceful evolution over the next decade. Its core structure ensures those exotic nuances transform into an ethereal mineral elegance over time.
Discover why this Kick On Ranch bottling stands apart: exceptional balance between intensity and refreshment today plus remarkable cellar potential tomorrow.
