About This Wine

Play

Riesling

Great wine is all about perfect harmony. With different notes, all playing off of one another this Riesling has the best elements of a fantastic New World wine. Tropical flavors of candied lemon zest, white peach, and green melon helped it win a silver medal at the 2017 Critics Challenge. With crisp, clean acidity and good balance, this wine has a long finish that will leave you wanting more.

Wine Region

Washington

With 18 recognized AVAs, Washington is the second-largest wine-producing state in the United States. Most of these AVAs are located in the east, centered around the valleys of Walla Walla, the Columbia River and Yakima. The grape varieties that thrive here are numerous: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling and Pinot Gris all continue to make increasingly compelling wines. Washington wines thrive in dry, semi-arid conditions far from the Pacific Ocean and are protected from the Pacific Northwest rain shadow by the Olympic and Cascade mountain ranges. Washington owes its unique terroir to the historic Missoula Floods, which swept through the region 10,000 years ago, stripping away the earth and replacing it with sandy soils from modern-day Utah, Idaho and Montana.
