Airlie Winery
Willamette Valley Müller-Thurgau
A good white for someone who drinks more red--just a touch if sweetness. Light and crisp.

Not minerally or overly acidic. Would try again, but wouldn’t consider greater or lesser than a straight Riesling varietal.

Mar 12th, 2023Sweet Muller Thurgau's are few and far between so it's always fun to try a new one. Slightly reminiscent of an off-dry Riesling, the nose is bright and shows notes of peach and stone. The palate is fruity and a touch sweet offset by an extremely dry finish with flavors of dry stone and limestone. Fun, different, interesting and delicious!
