This semi-dry Riesling is full of apples and grapefruit, and is crisp and refreshing. It pairs extremely well with spicy Indian food.

My wife and daughter love this Riesling. They prefer this over the semi-dry version. A good wine with subtle hints of pear. Excellent with fish.

A little over the edge. Crock was 1/4 wet. Little sparkly. Fruity and sweet in a good way. Over all good Riesling!

Anniversary = lots o' wine tasting. Crisp and just the right amount of sweetness. Went down too quickly that's for sure.

Very light in body and on the nose. Full of fruit (pear), and sweet like honey.

A nice wine. Not too sweet. A good table wine. It would be good in fondue as well.

Great balance with between the fruit and the acidity. Close your eyes, and you picture mosel, but nope NY baby.
