Navarro Vineyards, Anderson Valley (Mendocino County, California) Riesling 2019

I get to taste this wine often in its early development phase, and it always impresses with intense aromas and flavors that are pure Riesling in its sweetest nectar-like expression.  Finish?  It doesn’t really, it just keeps going with spice and stone fruit, and a saffron note is developing with a little more time in the bottle.  There is no better dessert wine for this price anywhere.  A Platinum Award winner at the 2021 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition.
