Our 2007 White Riesling is palest straw in color with a brilliant light to it. Try this test to see how brilliant your wine is. Tilt your glass sideways and let a ray of sunshine pass through it. Then playing with the light, see if it makes a brilliant star on the white cloth beneath. If it does, you’ll know you have a quality white wine of notable clarity and acidity. The bouquet in our 2007 Riesling is perfumed with apricots, delicate fresh fruit and a clean hint of mint. On the palate you will taste a mineral quality as well as green grapes and apricots. In addition you’ll note a touch of sweetness which, at one percent residual sugar, we call off-dry. We’ve been serving our Riesling with fresh pea and mint soup and summer corn soup, both of which have a degree of sweetness that enhances this off-dry quality. Other serving suggestions: sushi or Dungeness crab on corn pancakes.
