Description:
The Russian River Valley is a lush grape-growing region and the beautiful views along the river never disappoint. Our dry Riesling doesn’t disappoint either with notes of floral lilac, honeyed citrus and peach, with a clean, lingering taste of Asian pear. Pair a glass or two with sweet and spicy foods such as Thai spring rolls with peanut sauce, a savory pasta with Alfredo sauce, or a rich cheese course. This delightful light bodied wine finishes with sweet guava and lavender, perfect to mark the end of a meal, the end of the day, or just the end of spring in anticipation for hot days and warm nights.
