A well-made good value Riesling. Made in a fuller-bodied Alsace style, but on the slightly sweet end of the spectrum.
Medium gold color. Loads of up-front fruit on the nose (ripe Delicious apples, pear), along with melted butter and slightly-petrolly minerals. Mouthfilling fruit, full-body, and with somewhat lower acid than I usually like in a Riesling, but it offers lots of clean, slightly sweet fruit and mineral flavors and has decent balance despite its size. B, but you have to be ready for the style. I think this was around $11 from Total Wine in Fairfax. Imported by Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL.
