Fresh and fragrant with dried apricot, lime and petrol on the nose, this juicy wine opens with flavors of zesty tangerine and white peach that lead into a finish of pear skin and ginger.

The wine's Golden Delicious apple and pear aromas are joined by notes of of petrol and lemon drop hard candies, complete with the sugary coating. It's more of the same on the palate, although the citrus may lean toward lime. Nice acidity and the kind of clean, fresh mountain stream texture you'd like to dip a toe in.

A medium straw hue, the 2021 Riesling Estate is lifted with petrol, apricot, and candied citrus aromas. Despite its 13 grams of residual sugar, it comes across as primarily dry on the palate and is medium-bodied, with a nice balance between ripe fruit and fresh citrus drive, bright but not harsh acidity, and a clean, long finish. It is drinking well now and will do well over the next 6-8 years.
