A slightly sweet Washington Riesling, this wine has honey, apple, and Bosc pear flavors with a touch of citrus to the finish. A great food or cocktail wine, it paired perfectly with pan-seared mahi mahi & citrus-herb salad with whole wheat couscous and caramelized bell peppers.

Light bodied, plump with lemony brightness, flirting with sweetness, mildly acidic. Fab label, too.

Overly sweet and boring Washington Riesling. Notes of honey and apricot.

Loved this wine. Crisp refreshing not to sweet. Perfect for the front porch.

Refreshing, crisp, and not too sweet - just how I like Riesling.

Light golden color, apples and citrus on the nose. Medium mouthfeel, nice finish. Not as bright and dry and I typically prefer with Rieslings, but really nice with the wienerschnitzel I had for dinner

I'm partial to Rieslings, but this is a nicely balanced example. Not complex, but very nice.
