    Winemaker Notes

    For those with a sweet tooth…All the grapes for this wine are meticulously harvested by hand and placed in twenty pound trays before being frozen in a temperature controlled environment – imagine a giant freezer. The grapes are pulled from the "freezer" and pressed close to thawing point. The idea is that the sweeter juice comes out of the press first and that the water within the grape stays frozen. At the close of our pressing we usually end up with half the normal press yield (we get about 30 cases of wine per ton of grapes) and the juice is at 36 Brix. We then ferment the juice until 17% Residual Sugar, leaving 11% of alcohol. Through this winemaking we create a very fruity dessert wine and do not use any oak or malolactic fermentation on this wine.

    Pacific Rim is the home of Riesling zealots. In fact, 95% of the total production is Riesling wines. Riesling is consistently one of the fastest growing white varietals in the wine industry. Riesling simply is the most versatile, complex and food-friendly of all the noble grapes. No other varietal can be crafted to express so many different and wondrous characteristics — from bone dry with floral aromas to dessert, sweet with spicy aromas.

     More than any other varietal, Riesling purely expresses its terroir and Washington’s Columbia Valley — home of Pacific Rim — provides the ideal soils and climate for growing world class Riesling. Purity is at the core of Pacific Rim’s winemaking philosophy. They exclusively use stainless steel tanks, expressing the truest character of the vineyards. The wines are fresh, vivid and elegant with delicate yet complex aromas. Riesling’s crisp, vibrant characteristics are a fresh alternative to heavier, oak-laden white wines.
