A Best Buy |
| 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 florals. The palate is off-dry, racy and intense with all kinds of mouth-watering acidity and a lemon-grapefruit bitterness on the finish. The length is excellent. Score - 90 (David Lawrason, winealign.com, Feb. 2016) |
