About This Wine


McBride Sisters

Black Girl Magic Riesling

Black Girl Magic is a term used often, but what is it? Black Girl Magic is a concept and movement popularized by CaShawn Thompson in 2013 to "celebrate the beauty, power, and resilience of black women" and to congratulate black women on their accomplishments. To the McBride Sisters, Black Girl Magic is more than a phrase. It's a feeling. A look. A mood. A taste. Their Black Girl Magic Riesling is an ode to their culture and story, inspired by the magic and resilience of Black women, to be enjoyed by all. This is a premium wine that respects her palate and showcases the flavors of the finest single vineyards in California.

Wine Region


California

California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.

Intensely aromatic, this wine shows typical ripe Riesling characteristics, including honey, apricot, and white flowers. Tangerine, jasmine, and coriander seed appear in the nose, as the palate turns to tropical flavors evocative of guava and pineapple. Mild sweetness is balanced by a bright core of tangy citrus for a mouth-watering, sweet, and sour finish.
