My Review: I loved this wine mainly because of its price. I
have found that most Riesling’s are particularly expensive, so I was very
excited to see this. I was very surprised by my first taste of Riesling. I
found it to have a very strong nose. Extremely fruity. Peach and nectarines
were the first fruits that I smelled. The color had a strongly golden and
almost orange. The taste had almost every fruit in the market. I got pear,
apple, and peach with a strong acid touch. I really enjoyed this wine and am
looking forward to having it again.
I did not taste this wine with food.
