What to Expect
Few white wines have achieved the fame that Riesling has in Germany. Its ability to produce a wide range of styles, from bone dry to lusciously sweet, in an even wider range of climates has made it the grape of Germany. Riesling in Germany can range from the steely, piercing wines of the Saar to the round, opulent peachy wines one typically finds in the Nahe and the Pfaltz. Every region is capable of producing both dry and sweet versions though there is a movement towards drier wines that has taken hold throughout many regions.

I love this wine. For under $15 you can't beat it. If you haven't had this wine yet, get a bottle now. You won't be disappointed.
This was a fanatastic riesling for the price, Dr. L does it again. Great nose and better flavor, not much else to say, drink it and see what you think, you can't lose
Fresh yet slightly sweet and thick, would be good crowd-pleaser at a Spring picnic or event, tastes of green apple, wet stone, and peach with a glycerin sheen, medium acid, medium body, with fruit lingering in a short-to-average finish. Nose of wet stone and fruit. I also liked the low alcohol of 8.5%, read more...
Lime and slate on the nose, palate of lime juice, peach juice, and slate, with just a touch of sweetness and good acidity. Great with Thai food.
i found this white wine very pleasant. Nutty aroma, with a pear taste/ grapefruit taste. Not a white wine drinker, but this was is a must have. Would always have a bottle on hand
Pretty disappointing. Yet another one of those american-style over-sweet Rieslings.
Sleek and tangy, showing apricot, lime and mango flavors matched to a lively structure. Shows good harmony and persistence through the finish. Drink now through 2018.-B.S.
