Winemaker Notes
Perfect delicate yellow. Exudes flavors and aromas peaches and citrus. Slightly sweet, with bright, crisp flavors of green apple, pear and peach.
Best served chilled, and can be enjoyed before a meal or with spicier Asian cuisine.

Elegant mineral tones accent fresh white grapefruit and lime in this delicately sweet, crowd pleasing Riesling. Crisp white peach and tangerine flavors are brisk and thirst quenching, accented by just a hint of sweetness. A striking, svelte wine for a fantastic bargain price.

Riesling possesses a remarkable ability to reflect the character of wherever it is grown while still maintaining its identity. A regal variety of incredible purity and precision, this versatile grape can be just as enjoyable dry or sweet, young or old, still or sparkling and can age longer than nearly any other white variety. Somm Secret—Given how difficult it is to discern the level of sweetness in a Riesling from the label, here are some clues to find the dry ones. First, look for the world “trocken.” (“Halbtrocken” or “feinherb” mean off-dry.) Also a higher abv usually indicates a drier Riesling.
