winemaker's notes:

The fresh and balanced taste profile of Clean Slate is achieved by carefully selecting grapes from vineyards throughout the Mosel. The steep blue slate slopeds of the Lower Mosel give the wine its minerality while the middle Mosel provides a hint of spiciness to complement the characteristic fresh peach flavors of the Upper Mosel.

Pairs beautifully with Asian dishes, spicy foods, sushi, fish, poultry and pork.

A Customer - Oklahoma
This is a sweet, clean riesling that starts and finishes well. I was lucky to discover it and will enjoy it again.

A Customer - Aspen, Colorado
This is such a lovely wine. Light and crisp, certainly one of the best Rieslings available at wine.com, in my opinion. Has a nice pop on the tongue anytime. Very clean finish. I'm here to order another case!

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.

Organically grown grapes
Organically Grown Grapes
These wines are made from organically grown grapes from vineyards dedicated to sustainable farming.

Collectible wine
Collectible
These wines will improve from additional bottle age, when properly stored, and may show the greatest potential to increase in value.
