Community Tasting Notes 9

  November 4, 2012 - Past it's prime, but still nice enough. I am one if those red wine drinkers that's not afraid to admit I like Riesling. When done well it's wonderfully complex wine, crisp and acidic.
  
  The California Rieslings usually fall well short of the German and Alsatian examples. This one is a decent representation not too sweet, off-dry style. Some floral and citrus on the nose. White fruits, honey, and citrus. Light finish. Last bottle, would try again with more recent vintages.

  May 1, 2012 - Still has some life in it, not overly sweet, good acidity. Classic riesling flavors of apples and pears on the finish. Like prior reviews, Alsatian style.
