winemaker's notes:

Brimming with fresh fruit, the 2009 Riesling displays fresh apricot, peach and tangerine supported by lanolin and lime. Peach and apricot aromas are complimented by tea leaf on the palate with lively acidity and minerality. The finish is long, off-dry and deftly balanced of acid and sugar.

alcohol by volume: 12.6%

critical acclaim:

"Balanced between scents of apples and herbs, this simple, juicy white is ripe and fulsome on the palate, its lemony, clean fruit flavors stopping on a dime in a brisk finish. "

The first wine I truly enjoyed was a dry Riesling from Alsace. While my pallet has improved, I still love that varietal and that region. This wine brought me back that area. While it's is a little sweet on the front end, the minerality on the finish leaves it light and refreshing. It's a beautiful wine. We had it with a fairly tame curried squash soup.
