This is a great bottle of Riesling. Exceedingly crisp with great balance of acidity, minerality and just ever so slightly off dry. I highly recommend this wine as a sold QPR.

The colour is a deep, dark honey amber. The nose hits you with citrus notes, mango, and orange rind. A nice lively acid level. I had with it foie gras, and it completely cut through the unctuous nature of the foie. First flavours are citrus and honey, but the long finish shows molasses, brown sugar, and very light smoke. An incredible QPR for icewine.

This was a very pleasant dry Riesling. A deep amber/golden colour, more reminiscent of an aged German Riesling. The nose was subtle with notes of apple skin. It had acid that was on the high side of medium, but far from overwhelming. There was a good citrus and apple flavour to it and was notable for a very "clean" taste. Completely impressed me with what I was expecting based on other Arizona offerings.
