This 8 year old sweet Riesling is over the hill by now. Showing apples, melons, tropical fruits, peaches, spice, bananas light diesel and sea salt.
Medium bodied with high acidity.
Sweet on the palate and a little unbalanced.
I had it with dessert.
86 points.

Late harvest Riesling, ice wine style (I think). 12% alcohol and lovely on palate.

Golden straw with typical Riesling flavors of stone and tropical fruit with sweet floral notes. On the palate orange, apricot and honey with a nutty flavor. Nicely balanced with acidity. Goes well with desserts. Good value.

Jun 24th, 2016Pale yellow in color.
Intense nose of sweet candy, lemons, peaches, apricots, mangos, diesel and smoke.
Full bodied and succulent.
Semi sweet on the palate with enough acidity to balance the RS, with lemons, mangos and other tropical fruits.
Nice finish with a weird aftertaste, but not a bad one.

Riesling is typically quite citrus and tart, but late-harvest Riesling is another thing altogether. Staying on the vine longer makes more sugar in the grapes, so late harvest Riesling is sweet and makes a great dessert wine. Rose and I both enjoyed this Washington State wine.
