winemaker's notes:
Chateau Ste. Michelle is proud to offer Saint M, a German Riesling made by
acclaimed winemaker Ernst Loosen, owner of the Dr. Loosen estate, which has a
200-year tradition of producing Riesling in Germany's Mosel region. With his
modern world view and his traditional approach to winemaking, Ernst strives
to produce wines that unmistakably express the character of Riesling and of
the vineyards where they are grown. Saint M represents a great value in classic
Riesling from the Pfalz region.
"The 2006 Saint M Riesling is clean and crisp, with medium body and a well-defined,
delicate acid structure. It leans toward the classic white peach and green apple
flavors. I am extremely happy with how pure and clean it is. It's a very fun wine
to drink!"
—Ernst Loosen, owner, Dr. Loosen Estate
