Wine Review: This almost clear colored Riesling from the Mosel opens with a mild petrol and gentle pineapple bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, nicely balanced, round and juicy. The flavor profile is an Asian pear and light lemon iced tea blend with hints of minerality. I also detected a dash of white pepper. The finish is off-dry and nicely refreshing. This Riesling would pair well with stir-fried Chinese cashew chicken with noodles or Thai rolls. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Refreshing aromas of citrus fruit, lively on the palate. A character everyday wine.
