Wine Review: This light yellow wine opens with a really attractive ripe pear like bouquet. On the palate, this wine is light bodied and dry. It displays tart green apple flavors. There is also plenty of mineralty and notes of pineapple. The finish was quite dry and brief. The panel felt this wine would be a very good match for swordfish. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: The 2007 Dry Riesling presents with a green gold hue. It displays the qualities of a typical Dr. Frank's Riesling, with crisp acidity, pronounced mineral character and layers of mango, citrus and pear blossoms in the nose. This full-bodied taste balances with distinctive mineral character produced by the slate terrior of the estate vineyards. Serve with lobster, shellfish and pork dishes. Age this wine for five to ten years.
