The excellent Winemaker's Select Riesling from Snoqualmie is made in an off-dry style, with sweet fruit reminiscent of fresh-squeezed apple cider. Add in some spice and honey, and you have the basic flavors of this low alcohol, high sugar (6.5%) wine.

Sweet and light, with beautifully focused pear and cream aromas and flavors that remain pure and beguiling as the finish persists. Drink now.

Sweet but not cloying, showing its apple, pear and honey flavors on an open texture. Drink now.

Soft and light, this is sweet enough to make the melon and citrus flavors feel rich, but the tang on the finish keeps it in balance. Drink now.

With full ripeness, density and concentration, this keeps its superb balance at just 10.8% alcohol and 5% residual sugar. The dynamic tension plays out beautifully, and doesn't veer into any sort of sugary slackness. This has the sort of weight and complexity you would expect in a $30 wine.

Quite sweet and fruity, with honeyed, candied stone fruit flavors. The residual sugar is listed as 6%, which qualifies this as a late-harvest style, and it would fit nicely alongside a simple dessert of fresh peaches and butter cookies.
