Hive & Honey, Monterey County (California) Riesling 2020

Sep 28, 2021

By Rich Cook

 You’ll find this to be one of the most complex white wines you’ve ever tasted for eight dollars.  It’s layered with apricot, lemon and lime and add a little pithy note in the finish that deepens the fruit character.  Slightly sweet, it will take the edge off the Indian summer.  A Platinum Award winner at the 2021 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
