Riesling continues to be undervalued in the US market, and it’s a shame, because like Merlot, the producers who remain dedicated to it simply try harder to make a delicious product. This budget-friendly sweet rendition is balanced for easy drinking, with soft with bright apple and lemon joined by sweet apricot and spice. A case-buy for fans. A Platinum Award Winner at the 2018 Monterey International Wine Competition.
