TASTING NOTE: Lifted floral notes mingle with orchard fruit, hints of lime and tangerine along with a whiff of wet stone. Off dry and mid weight, this citrusy Riesling offers up a lovely mineral character and clean, juicy acidity presenting a fine counterpoint to ripe, sweet fruit. There's great balance and freshness throughout. Serve on its own or with soft cheese. Score - 4 out of 5 stars (Susan Desjardins, winecurrent.com, March 15, 2016) Price $ 19.95
