Smith Madrone

Spring Mountain District Riesling 2019

Light yellow in color with a golden hue.

Beautiful and aromatic nose with apples, white flowers, diesel notes, honey and minerals.

Medium plus in body with high acidity.

Dry on the palate with a touch of RS.

Showing citrus, limes, apples, spices, white pepper, minerals, sea salt, light river rocks and diesel.

Tangy long finish with limes and spices.

This is a delicious Riesling from Spring Mountain District in Napa Valley. Elegant and fruit forward with enough acidity to balance the fruits.

Rich and nicely balanced. Feels like a Mosel Riesling. Tangy and interesting.

Still young, and already drinking beautifully. Will continue to age nicely in the next 15+ years.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 20 minutes of airtime. Better when not too cold.

I had a few vintages of this wine and it always delivers. This vintage is delicious.

Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food. Will pair nicely with spicy Asian food.

13.3% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$40.
