Wine Review: This wine opens with a pleasant floral bouquet with hints of apricot. On the palate, the wine is crisp, has citrus flavors with some spiciness, nicely round, and refreshing. The finish is dry and lingers for a little while. This wine would match well with chicken piccata. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: An appealing peach nose and flavor, perfectly structured to enhance any meal. Dry, with elegant melon fruit and notable citrus character. A slight, surprising spritz is our unique Riesling style.

Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell Riesling.
