Plenty of body but also nice definition. Will be interesting to see with more time in bottle.

Green pears and apples dipped in petrol, 3rd day open and hanging tough.

A very good match for cioppino - fruit, acid, minerality and a hint of RS to match the spice.

On 4th day open it still has the fresh fruit and minerality, but acidity has definitely softened. Quite quaffable though.

Tasted a bit harsh, acidic, and alcoholic for Riesling. Not the zippy refreshment I would expect from Riesling, but an interesting contrast to Alsace and the Mosel valley for sure.

I have found another domestic Riesling to love. Stone fruit, white flowers and hint of petrol. Summer of Riesling baby!

I've heard of Dashe before but never tried their stuff. Really vibing this juicy red apple so much. It's so light, refreshing, and full of life. I think there's a bit of Brett in the formula but I don't consider it a turnoff. These moderated petrol notes are giving me a craving to look for more nor cal rieslings, but the hint of spice seriously balances it. It's like a tangerine zest and an insanely high acid that just wipes away the sensation so you can start all over again. Totally light totally balanced. This is an awesome get you drunk wine!
