PnP. Lots of fresh pineapple and apricots on the nose with hints of peaches and clean wet stone. Palate loaded with fresh pineapple juice, spicy pears, apricots, and peaches. Very crisp and not at all syrupy. Viscous body keeps a nice lingering finish on the mid-palate with a hint of chalk on the back-palate. 12.5% abv with a touch of residual sugar.
Style & Quality: B. Solid wine. Simple and easy drinking w/o trying to be more. Enough acidity to make it refreshing and just enough residual sugar to bring out subtle flavors without being cloying or over the top.
Value: B+. $12 / pop is a great price for an alternate everyday white with bigger body and great flavors.
Overall: B+

Dry and crisp, refreshing, just enough fruit to remind you that it's a Riesling.

A dry Riesling with a citrus nose, floral notes with some minerality. Crisp acidity. A refreshing wine from excellent growers.
