Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Looking for a stylish, elegant, low-alcohol, off-dry Riesling? Here it is. Under 11% alcohol, this floral, almost delicate wine is a breath of sweet air. A perfect mix of honeydew, Asian pear and ripe apple, it holds down center court with a delicious liveliness. Flavors extend, lightly kissed with honey, into a lingering, clean and sweetly fresh finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Quite earthy, almost to the point of tasting like dirt. Instead of fruit there is tomato, beet and root; it’s a charmless style of Pinot. Hard to understand the “select” part.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Hints of nail polish and flavors of hard citrus candy, with grainy honey and sugar. This is not a shy Riesling; it’s intense, rich with peach and apricot, and pushed just a bit too far for some tastes.
