Description:
Harvested from Wickets, Tuscanny and McKay Vineyards on September 15, 2005. Riesling is one of the most revered and loved grape varieties of Germany. The many different styles of Riesling demonstrate the flexible nature of wines made from this variety. Ranging from bone dry to syrupy sweet, the rich, tropical fruit and spicy aromas work well with the ever present crisp acidity. Our Riesling strikes the perfect balance between dry and sweet. This is a great wine to relax and unwind with or to enjoy with spicy cuisine. After all, flexibility is the key to any successful operation.
