A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: Year after year this remains a best buy in super fresh, well balanced, off dry Niagara riesling. The cool 2014 vintage has added just a bit more lime acidity. It has a fairly intense nose of ripe apple, nectarine, floral and honeyed notes. It's light to medium bodied with great sweet-tart balance and mouthwatering acidity. Very good to excellent length. Best now to 2019. Score - 89 (David Lawrason, winealign.com, Sept. 10, 2015) |
