2021 Tatomer Clone 239 Riesling, Kick-On Vyd
"The 2021 Riesling Kick-on Ranch Clone 239 is a complex, beguiling wine. Viscous in its intensity, with a touch of botrytis, the 2021 is mesmerizingly beautiful. Ripe pear, apricot, yellow flowers and chamomile all flesh out in the glass. I very much admire the dimension and breadth here. (Drink between 2024-2031)" -Vinous, 95VM
Graham Tatomer has staked his claim on a unique slice of the wine world, producing a meticulously crafted roster of Riesling and Grüner Veltliner that successfully exudes the precision of his Old World influences. The addition of a beautiful and overperforming array of Pinot Noirs to the lineup has brought diversity and expanded his reach considerably. As gifted as Tatomer is with dry iterations of aromatic white wines, his off-dry and sweet bottlings—produced in Spätlese, Auslese and Beerenauslese styles but labeled in code to avoid legal issues—are indeed on another level and accentuate his prowess in harnessing luscious, decadent textures with elegance and crystalline clarity." - Wine Advocate
