Why do we love it?
California and Riesling are not two words we're used to seeing together, but Tatomer Vandenberg Riesling is here to change that, and in the most impressive way possible! Let's see what we're talking about: a dry Riesling, touched by the magic of noble rot, explosive tropical aromas, a saline edge, complexity, crisp acidity, and all of that backed by 92 points from Robert Parker! Can you resist?
Tatomer spent several vintages in Austria's Wachau, working alongside the great Emmerich Knoll. Inevitably, this was his initiation into the art of crafting exemplary Rieslings. Upon returning to California, he wanted to put into practice everything he had learned from his mentor, so he set out to find old vineyards in relatively cool-climate sites. His search eventually brought him to Santa Barbara, where the vineyards lie close to the coast and benefit from cool ocean breezes that not only moderate temperatures but also provide the humidity needed in the vineyard, as you'll see below.
For Vandenberg Riesling, grapes were sourced primarily from old vines, mainly from the benchmark Kick-On Ranch Vineyard, one of California's finest sites for Riesling. The combination of soil and climatic conditions produces highly concentrated fruit, some of which is affected by botrytis, thanks to the humidity mentioned earlier. Yes, we know you probably associate botrytis with some of the world's greatest and most expensive sweet wines, but here we have a dry Riesling that captures all the captivating complexity of noble rot, just as Knoll does in Austria. Magical, isn't it?
Tatomer Riesling Vandenberg is the Riesling you'll love whether you're already a fan of the variety or not (if such a thing is even possible)!

On the palate it is medium bodied, with crisp acidity and impressive concentration. Dried apricot, peach, pineapple preserve, mango, lemon curd, honeycomb, and wet stone compose a very enjoyable set.

Grilled sea bass with spicy soy sauce

  • 2 seabasses (500 grams each), with guts and scales removed
  • olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • a handful of fresh herbs (rosemary, oregano)
  • 2 lemons or 1 orange
  • 10 g of fresh ginger in thin slices
  • Extra slices of lemon or lime for serving
  •  For the sauce
  • 2 tbsps. of olive oil
  • 2-3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
  • 1/2 to 1 fresh hot pepper, in thin slices (depends on your preferences)
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 tsp. of sugar

Preheat your barbecue or light the charcoal. Gut the fish, remove the scales, and wipe it well. Make 3-4 vertical, to the bone incisions on each side of the fish. Brush the fish, in and out, with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, in and out. Put in the fish's belly some fresh herbs and slices of lemon or orange. Put slices of ginger in the incisions you made earlier.

Place the fish in a baking pan. After the bbq is ready or after the grill has warmed up well, bake for 5-7 minutes and then turn it on the other side for another 5 minutes.

For the sauce, place a small saucepan on medium to high heat. Add the olive oil and when it's heated up, add the garlic and the chili peppers. Cook for 30 seconds. Add the soy sauce and sugar and allow to boil for 1 minute.

 Pour the sauce over the fish and serve with slices of lemon.
