More or less what we would expect from Fetzer, clean and well made, if not overly exciting. Have to give them credit this time for being authentic and correct to the varietal. To my palate, this Riesling is a little cloying and syrupy. On the positive side they have captured some nice chalky, mineral flavors enhancing the fruit. This one started to be more expressive as it warmed up in the glass. The finish started to become interesting with some talc and solid Granny Smith Apple acid with fresh peach and melon.

Sweet stonefruit, pears, lemon-lime, and melon are flanked by slaty minerality and touch of saline. Full bodied with a crisp and lively finish that extends the mineral theme.

Still good even pdr it's prime but very sweet. Drank with Cindy Fairman for their 40th wedding anniversary. She really liked it.

Nice, medium sweet. Sustainability pitch is a plus. Nothing special, nothing to dislike. Just sort of......
