The Mountain Winery in Saratoga—an estate with roots dating back to the early Paul Masson era—continues its tradition of producing limited, estate-curated bottlings with this 2012 Riesling Reserve. The winery has long balanced historic California winemaking heritage with small-lot production, and its Reserve releases highlight selections made for elevated quality within the lineup. The 2012 growing season in California was widely regarded as steady and generous, offering producers a return to classic conditions after two leaner vintages.
