| Community Tasting Notes (average 86.7 pts. and median of 87 pts. in 3 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by goblu6 on 3/14/2011 & rated 87 points: Semi sweet with nice flavors of pear and grapefruit. Smooth finish with some length for a Riesling. (2358 views) | | | Tasted by Mike Kopanski on 2/8/2011 & rated 85 points: Hey it was $2 a glass riesling night, and it was good enough to have 2 glasses. Went perfect with potato and leek soup, and hung in there with mahi over risoto and green beans. Almost totally dry. Very golden in color. Not much going on, but nothing wrong either. Probably would appreciate a little more acid. Very clean and well made. I've had a lot worse.

Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson North CoastThe North Coast American Viticultural Area (AVA) in California, covering more than three million acres, includes Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino and Lake counties, and portions of Marin and Solano counties.
