The 2010 Runway Late Harvest Riesling was made with 50-60% botrytis infected fruit and finished with 15% residual sugar. Peaches, tropical fruits, honey, and botrytis aromas lead to a viscous, vibrant wine with superb natural acidity that frames the fruit brilliantly. This wine is all about pleasure; how long it will last is difficult to say but there is no rational reason to defer your gratification. By the way, it is also an outstanding value in sweet dessert wine.
Airfield Estates is the winery of the Miller family, father and son. Long-time grape growers, when son Marcus became interested in wine and received the requisite training, it became time to divert some of the estate grapes into their own label. The first vintage was in 2005.
