Medium golden yellow. The nose opens up very nicely with exotic fruit, honey and citrus fruit. The 19% Gewurztraminer cleary shows. Sweet first impression on the palate, followed by citrus fruit in the mid-palate. On the finish this is very Muscat-like (2% in this blend) which make it a soggy wine. Misses a good balance between acidity and sweet fruit.

This crisp off-dry medium bodied California Riesling is terrific as an aperitif, cocktail wine, with fruit, cheeses, spicy dishes, light seafood or shellfish dishes. I would buy it again. I like it! AROMAS: lemon-lime, fresh citrus leaves, green apple, golden apple, honeysuckle, mandarin oranges in syrup. FLAVORS: confirms the aromas and add grapefruit, grapefruit zest and honey and light mineral tones on the finish. STRUCTURE: off-dry, crisp acidity, medium body, 13% alcohol, long flavorful finish. 79% White Riesling, 19% Gewurztraminer, 2% Orange Muscat.

Johnson Brothers Pours some Wines (Conference room): Beautiful nose, which is as much Gewurzy as it is Riesling. Lots of floral qualities. A little sweet on the palate, or actually, a little low on acidity. Too fat to enjoy. 83-85
