Sunny Slope Cuvée

2008 Snake River Valley Riesling

The Koenig Vineyards Sunny Slope Cuvée from the 2008 vintage is a delightful expression of Riesling hailing from the picturesque Snake River Valley. Its luminous white hue captures the essence of freshness and vitality. On the palate, this wine reveals a harmonious balance with a medium body that invites exploration. The acidity is bright and refreshing, creating an invigorating lift that enhances the overall experience. Lush fruit intensity presents itself through notes of ripe apricot and zesty lime, while the wine's subtle sweetness makes it pleasingly off-dry. This charming Riesling is a wonderful example of the region's ability to produce wines that are not only food-friendly but also easy to enjoy on their own. Each sip transports you to the sun-kissed slopes of the Snake River Valley, showcasing the remarkable terroir that defines this extraordinary cuvée.

From rich and powerful California Zinfandel to spicy Oregon Pinot Noir, and from full-bodied Washington Merlot to aromatic New York Riesling, the wines of the United States are nearly as diverse as its population. People have been making wine in North America from European vitis vinifera vines since the first French settlers arrived in the 1500s. Progress stalled along the way by pests and diseases that the vine had never encountered in its homelands, but today wine is produced in all 50 states. With more than 260 AVAs to discover, each with its unique climate and landscape, wines of the United States have much to offer.
