Madrona Riesling
The History
The Madrona wine all started by a pioneer who found an
exceptional landscape that is divestible to the hillside vine
yard, which was located in El Dorado, California in 1973. It
was originally founded by the Senior Bush who wanted to
create this unique wine that has great acidity with perfect
balance to create this comfort when drinking the wine. This
authentic wine was discovered from a 350 year old Madrona tree, which represented the location to grow the best terroir of the Madrona vineyards. These Madrona trees are
found in the greatest growing regions through El Dorado,
Sierra Foothills AVAs.

100% Riesling
Tasting Note
The aromas are almost like candy, with a mélange of fresh peach,
tangy gingerroot, sweet pear and lemon zest bringing it all together. As an off- dry style of Riesling, the hint of residual sugar (1.5%) lifts the fruitiness and the richness on the palate while being balanced by the great acidity (and low pH: 2.93!). More peach nectar, soft apple cider and Zephyr white nectarine support the body while cardamom and orange pekoe tea provide the spice nuances of this exceptional Riesling.
