Wine Review: This pale white gold colored Riesling is truly a dry styled offering. It opens with a mild tangerine and wet stone like bouquet with a hint of lime. On the palate, this wine is light to medium bodied, round and citrusy. The flavor profile is a mineral infused tart lime and tangy tangerine blend with a hint of green apple. The finish is dry and friendly. This Riesling would pair well with fish. Swordfish kabobs came to mild as I was drinking it. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: A signature Lamoreaux Landing Riesling presenting intense notes of peach, apricot and stone fruit in harmony with an edge of minerality. An energetic palate is highlighted by lemon, papaya and ginger with a steely finish. Smooth and seductive on the senses, yet dry enough to cleanse the palate. Serve as an aperitif or Pair with white meats, cream sauces, or mild Asian cuisine.
