| SKETCHES OF NIAGARA RIESLING 2010 VQA Niagara Peninsula |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
TAWSE |
| Bright pale straw colour. Intense, youthful, ripe apple nose with some hints of honey. Fairly dry, medium-light bodied, slightly honeyed, spicy, ripe lemon-melon-apple flavours with a tangy, clean, lingering, unoaked, mineral-tinged, ripe apple finish. Screwcap closure. This repeat is even better than the recommended/best buy 2010 (**+) released on October 13, 2012 at $17.95. |

A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: Huge value here & It is not a profound, nuanced, mineral-driven riesling, but it is intense, juicy, fresh and exceedingly bright. Very fresh acidity balances some sweetness, creaminess and the ripeness of the vintage. Expect yellow plum-pear, grapefruit and vague petrol and spice. It s so zesty and mouthwatering; with excellent length. Score: 91 (David Lawrason, winealign.com, March 2012) |
