Description:
Our Riesling Special Reserve is made from 100% Riesling grapes which are picked by hand. Riesling’s high natural level of tartaric acid enables it to balance even high levels of residual sugar. Production of this wine is extremely limited.
Vibrant floral scents are distinctively accented with ripe apricot and peach. Our Riesling Special Reserve is fairly bursting with flavors of peaches, spiced pears, apple and honey.
It has an uplifting orange-citrus fruitiness whose sweetness accentuates the rich, lingering texture of this well-balanced wine. Deeply golden-hued, this elegant, concentrated wine is the perfect dessert wine for those who enjoy an ultra-sweet finish to dinner.
