Crafted from 20-year-old vines rooted in sandy-clay limestone soils, this expressive Riesling combines freshness with remarkable depth and character. Only 2,000 bottles are produced, making this a genuinely limited discovery for lovers of distinctive European white wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"488\" data-end=\"991\"\u003eHand-harvested and made with minimal intervention, the wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation before ageing on fine lees for three months, followed by a full year in bottle before release. The result is a beautifully focused Riesling with aromas of lime, beeswax and a subtle hint of classic petroleum, leading into a tight, lean and rich palate with citrus peel, seeds, flint and delicate waxy complexity. A superb match for Thai dishes, seafood, shellfish, fresh cheeses and lightly spiced cuisine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eOdessos is one of the new wave of Bulgarian wineries, located in the city of Varna on the Black Sea coast, with a groundbreaking and very modern concept and whose story began in 2016. After travelling around the world and gaining experience at some of the most prestigious wineries in Australia, New Zealand and Chile, the brothers Georgi and Vladislav Vankov came up with the idea of creating one of the first urban wineries in Bulgaria. Love for winemaking has been in their family for generations and the idea of creating Odessos was a natural continuation of this passion.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 2\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"993\" data-end=\"1053\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eWhite Wine | 12% ABV | Bulgaria | Riesling | Drink 2026–2033\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Jolly Merchant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64671140315485,"sku":"TWS-000852","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/9610\/3517\/files\/VenchanRiesling.jpg?v=1778591384","url":"https:\/\/vinoshop.co.uk\/products\/odessos-venchan-riesling","provider":"The Wine Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
