What to Expect

Riesling is a chameleon of a grape, able to produce world class wines that range from bone dry to unctuously sweet. Germany is most closely associated with Riesling, where all styles are made and the range of flavors runs the gamut from steely and crisp with crunchy mineral-driven flavors to fresh lime, apple and peach flavored expressions - even rich honied, candied fruit tones in the great dessert wines.

Winemakers Notes

Tasting Notes: Almost bone dry, with a fine perfume suggesting apricots, fresh flowers and lime peel. Varietal Notes: Riesling gives wine lovers the finest example of the important complementary role that sugar and acid play in a wine's overall balance. Indeed, a great Riesling is exactly that, a stunningly graceful contrast between the two. Rounding out the package are the signature floral fruit characteristics that combine perfectly with the grape's natural sugar-acid balance.

Vineyard Notes: Soils are from glacial deposits, friable, well drained and have an eastern aspect (slopes point to the east) . The vines are 6-15 years old.
