Riesling is the Big Kahuna of Lake Erie whites and this off-dry version was made in stainless steel to preserve and capture its inherent fruit flavors. Our 2020 vintage was a spectacular one and our 2020 Riesling joins our 2019 as a major award winner that must be tried. Aromas of lemon are infused with light hints of peach and ruby red grapefruit in this popular white varietal vintage that is a bit drier than the 2019. Its off-dry palate leads in to a juicy mineral mouthfeel, followed by a zesty citrus finish.
This is a very versatile food partner – try it with spicy fare, fruit dishes, lobster, scallops and fish, pork, and smoked meats and cheeses.
