Wine Review:
Our Columbia Valley Riesling is a blend of Riesling from throughout Washington’s Columbia Valley. We craft it to be a refreshing, off-dry Riesling vintage after vintage. The wine delivers sweet lime and peach character with subtle mineral notes. This is our "every day Riesling" that is a pleasure to drink and easy to match with a variety of foods. -Bob Bertheau, Head Winemaker at Chateau SteMichelle
My review:
Smell - This wine smelled with citrusy. It also had some peaches on the nose. The aroma felt really light in my nose as well. Overall, it smelled pleasant, almost picnic-esque.
Taste - I was surprised at how sweet this wine was, even with 12% alcohol. However, it wasn't too sweet. There was just a little residual sugar. It was quite fruity with lots of peaches on my palate. I also got a hint of lime on the back end. This was really light and crisp and refreshing. I thought it was a delightful little wine. I would purchase this again, especially if it was a gift for someone namend Michelle. Haha.
I tasted this wine without food.
