July 23, 2017 - It is showing the complexity of age. Golden color and very pleasant. Surprisingly good.

April 11, 2016 - This bottle showed distinct nose of petrol and apple. The wine seemed a little tired and not fresh. Maybe at a point in it's development that it is a little awkward? Or could it be it is beyond it's peak?

January 13, 2015 - Light golden straw, white peach nose. Off dry with light acid, medium body, pear and peach fruit, good mouthfeel but needs more acid to balance the rs, but I am an acid junkie. A couple nights later and the acid has presented itself to compliment the sweetness. More of a sipping wine than quaffer, but very good with just a mineral hint to the citrus.

April 30, 2011 (link)(Long Shadows Wineries Poet’s Leap Riesling) Lemon zest, melon, and stone fruits appear on the nose, followed by a slight creaminess on the palate. A gentle 1.35 grams of residual sugar is balanced perfectly by mouthwatering acidity and a finish with lilies and hints of white pepper. 3,200 cases made. Winery Spotlight: Long Shadows Winery
