Bright straw gold. Green apple and citrus rind on the inviting nose. Medium palate yields green apple, lemon oil, citrus rind, and dried honeysuckle. Medium acidity. Medium, slightly earthy finish. A nice northwest dry Riesling that calls to mind the Australian style more than Germany or Alsace (so don't look here for a substitute). Ready for Thanksgiving or game fish. Drink now.

Tried a lot of Kudos wines and in general I’m not a fan and this Riesling is no different. Pale lemon with odd aromas of briny stone fruits with underlying citrus notes. On the palate citrus and spice flavors, not that pleasant. Short finish, ending a bit off balance. Pass. Tasting Sample.

Good. Light. Can definitely go with another bottle.

Well balanced, light, dry. Perfect with or without food

$13.5 from Wine Warehouse. Not quite sweet actually.

Not the biggest fan. It is dry but the acidity tasted of some wet charred action that was not super great. Maybe a little Granny Smith apple but also vinegar like balsamic flavors in this glass

Nice domestic Riesling in the Alsace style. Typical flavors of Meyer lemon, rocks, and bracing acidity. Finish was discordant and left something to be desired.
