Tasting Notes:

Nose of stone fruit, and a harmony of citrus. On the palate, great structure and balance, soft texture and excellent acidity. The finish is long and refined. Unlike a northern Riesling, this elegant wine is not overly acidic, and with very low residual sugar, the end is clean, fresh and re-inviting!
