Nice mineralogy, lovely notes of apricot and gardenia. Mouth is smooth, nice acid, Bosc pear and more apricot. Tasty for the price point. Get out the spicy food! 🌶

This Riesling is sweet and just slightly fruit flavored, but falls short on overall flavor compared to many other Riesling’s.

Primarily Riesling with small amounts of Gewurtztraminer, Muscat and Chardonnay blended in. Bright golden color. Incredibly fruit forward (apricot and peach) on the nose. Hints of jasmine and sweet spice as well. Pallet is apple and pear driven with some hints of those sweet spices. Noticeable RS on the finish. Not enough acidity to maintain balance. A bit cloying and syrupy. It is quite bright and fresh. Fruit salad in a glass.

Peach and green apple/pear aromas. Slight smoky smell. Off dry. Tasted good with Italian food. Paired it with a creamy white sauce pasta dish with crab in it, and a spinach, strawberry and goat cheese salad. Made the wine taste slightly sweeter. Overall, not very complex.

Light stone fruit flavors with just the right amount of sweetness. A touch of jasmine is suggested.
