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:
Pale gold in the glass, this wine has a shockingly bright nose of quince and honey that begs to be inhaled slowly, as if that were physically possible. On the tongue it is halogen bright, with gorgeous acidity that brings to life a swath of flavors ranging from fresh lemon juice and honey to paraffin and nut skin. The wine lasts forever in the mouth, lingering through its drawn out finish on vapors of pomelo and orange zest. A fantastic, distinctive wine.

Food Pairing:
Whatever you eat with this wine, make sure it's damn good. I drank this on my birthday last read more...

Reviews

The wine is very attractive and quite powerful. It is a full-bodied wine with intensity, depth, beautiful mineral flavors and rich, ripe acidity with great personality and finesse. Aging potential: 10+ years. The Frederic emile is delicious with fish, poultry and veal, sea scallops, and salmon. Dover sole and walleye pike are also great companions, as are grilled and marinated fish, or fish cooked in white wine sauces.
