A Best Buy |
| Tawse has won Winery of the Year honours an unprecedented three times in a row at the Canadian Wine Awards. TASTING NOTE: This is textbook Niagara Riesling in the Mosel style, if you allow that textbooks can be utterly delicious. A kiss of sweetness counterpoints waves of fresh squeezed lime and stony minerality. This exceptional value will pair nicely with grilled lake fish, sushi, or chicken burgers with chimichurri sauce. (Vintages panel, May 2013) Off-dry & Fruity |
