WineDiva's Review

Racy, lengthy, pretty.
This delightfully pretty Riesling rolls out fragrant aromas of bergamot and jasmine, peach stone and green apples with lime and lemongrass undertones. While it is racy, it does have a kiss of sweetness to make the fruit pop. Tangy lime and green apples with honey cling to the palate. Wonderful balance and freshness.
Upper Bench suggests pairing it with their house label French Gold cheese.


 
Recommended Pairings
Spicy Food, Patio Sippers, White Meat Chicken/Pork, Appetizers, Cheese - Soft/Creamy
