Wine Review: This almost clear colored Riesling is consistently very good and popular with my readers. It is medium bodied, slightly acidic and semi-sweet. The flavor profile is a ripe green grape with notes of pear and mild minerality. The finish is remains semi-sweet and pleasing. This Riesling is a good value wine that is food friendly. I would pair it with chicken lo-mein or broiled scallops. Enjoy – Ken
