Black Star Farms ‘Arcturos’ Dry Riesling 2019: Light acidity. Bright fruit. Clean & refreshing taste. Apple. Pear. Apricot. Citrus. Stone. Crisp, off-dry finish. All in all, a beautiful & surprising Riesling from the great state of Michigan. So surprised I had to bring back to my hotel room! Happy Sunday! Cheers🍷

Not saying much but maybe best Midwest wine I’ve tried. Good varietal character with floral yellow fruit, healthy mineral and underlying subtle spice edge

Not bad for a MI Riesling. A touch spendy for what it is, but pleasant.

Good but not great. Agree that it's a pricey selection for what you get. OMP proving it can produce some unique wines, but would like a better value.
