  I see that it's been years since someone else posted a review. The wine is a rich golden colour and has moved into sweet apple juice territory while losing acidity. I should have opened this a while ago.

  Birthday Dinner 2015 (Mitzo): Quite a well-made new world Riesling – it was a surprise when we found out it was from Niagara. It could well be my first dry wine from the region. It had an attractively perfumy nose, with stone-fruited peach aromas laced with sweet floral tones and a little trace of petroleum. The palate was very pleasant, but seemed a little simple in its green pear and green apple notes, lined on the midpalate with citrus limes and then some mineral tones at the finish. However, I really liked the juicy brightness and sleek lines of the wine, which made it a pretty and quite delicious little drink. It is showing nicely now, especially when paired with seafood dishes.

  - Greenish color. It's in total harmony with a light/medium body with a medium finish - Enjoyed on Christmas Day before dinner ... Lovely example of Ontario Riesling .. good acidity which made for a good match with some Quebec cheeses

  This is really a solid Niagara wine showing it competes with the best the World has to offer. Notes of pear and fresh cut lemon grass. Some sweetness but nice acidity on the finish. Almost has an effervescence on the palette. Would recommend you get it before its gone.
