TASTING NOTE: Year after year Sketches delivers great value in bright, shiny, fruit-driven Niagara Riesling. Expect lifted aromas of peach-apple fruit, lemon-lime and floras. The palate is off-dry, racy and intense with all kinds of mouthwatering acidity and a lemon-grapefruit bitterness on the finish. The length is excellent.
