Winemaker Notes - Our 2007 Riesling was slowly cold-fermented in stainless steel tanks to retain all its varietal character and preserve a fresh, fruity style. This dry-styled Riesling, reminiscent of Alsace, offers enticing, fragrant aromas of ripe fig and peaches accented by hints of citrus and lovely honeysuckle. On the graceful palate, the wine s bright key lime pie and peach flavors are heightened by a refreshing minerality that lingers through the crisp finish.
