The 2023 Riesling Release

Radical Vision.
Unmistakable place.

Martin’s Lane Rieslings are not for the faint of palate. They’re racy, alive, and unapologetically expressive of the Okanagan’s most esteemed vineyards. Crafted in impossibly small quantities, these wines sell out year after year.

This is your moment to secure the 2023 vintage.

This set reflects the stylistic precision we’ve refined over ten vintages, drawn from two distinct microclimates within our historic vineyards.

Each wine is singular in character, yet both offer a quiet nod to old-world tradition, marked by texture, minerality, and the ability to age gracefully.

Naramata Ranch Riesling

2023 Naramata Ranch vineyard Riesling

Intense. Plush. Saline.

From 1976 plantings seated deep in granite. Floral yet saline, opulent and intense. A very cold winter gave way to a short, concentrated season, reducing yields and amplifying depth. Whole clusters, gently crushed and macerated for twelve hours. Wild fermentation in German oak shaped its layered, plush texture.

Intense, expressive, and unmistakably Naramata.

Fritzi Vineyard Riesling

2023 Fritzi’s Vineyard Riesling

Precise. Intense. Racy.

Planted in 1997, Fritzi’s Vineyard rises from stony glacial till and clay. Its south-east aspect catches just enough early light to build ripeness without excess. Forty-eight hours of skin contact and wild fermentation in German oak have revealed a wine of tension and structure, shaped further by five months on original lees.

A Riesling with quiet power and enduring elegance.

Place, Defined.

Overlooking Okanagan Lake, this West Kelowna site is defined by glacial till and unique clay soils. Planted in 1997, its Rieslings are layered, focused, and powerful.

Gnarly vines claw through granite bedrock and glacial silt, shaped by elevation and extremes. This is where texture becomes elegance, and our most expressive Rieslings take shape.
