Prickly Riesling
Victoria, Australia

Easy to throw back. Seemingly on the sweet side of off-dry. Not a wholly integrated wine, but a good quaffer.

Light and refreshing. Apple, lemon-lime sorbet, a touch of pineapple and a hint of effervescence.

Pale lemon color. Nose is intense with aromas of stone fruit, lychee, lemon, white blossoms.
Off-dry, high acid, low alcohol, medium body. The lemon and citrus really comes through in the flavor, so along with the residual sugar, this wine works so well. There's a slight effervescence and it reminds me of a refreshing lemon Italian soda. Perfect summer wine.
