A singularly British Columbia Riesling.... On nose: tangerine and kumquat, with faint minerals. On palatae: follow throughof above flavours, as well as light smoke, moderate acidity, a ghost of petrol framed on a surprisingly full, soft body....after a 1 hour decant . Notes of ripe apple , and subtle lemon peel emerge, as it warms up.....a pleasant dinner wine, but far removed from the Alsace and German Rieslings in style....it is a wine of it's place of origin ....it could fool some, in a blind tasting : notes of Pinot Gris, or Carricante emerge....as for me....I prefer Alsace, and its bracing acidity.

Light straw yellow in color. Notes of green apple, and lime. Great example of a Riesling.
