Wonderful full bodied Riesling, unapologetically Californian, but like all of Gideon's wines, balanced and classic at the same time. Perfect pairing with clove and allspice spiced tuna tartar.

In magnum, only 188 made, 13.5% but I couldn't tell, loved the fruit, the density

Nothing like old Riesling. Apparently even from the US it's delicious! From magnum.

waxy with some preserved lemon in the background. Good and integrated. Perhaps not the most complex bottle on the table tonight

Insane. Big perfection. Rich and malo-inflected, but so great. Curious to learn about what this was grown on.
