Riesling - 2016

Riesling is Love & Squalor’s calling card, and Matt’s style — wet slate, delicate florals, toe-tingling austerity — bears the mark of a man who’s hiked up a hillside or two in the Mosel (or, in Matt’s case, made some wine). But whereas the Mosel is all slate and piano wires and harrowing views, Matt’s brings the mystery and lushness of a temperate rainforest. This entry-level bottling is a great introduction for anyone curious about what Riesling is capable of in Oregon.
