8.8

Clear, still, no sediment, pale yellow, citrus and green apples, same for palate. Extremely dry for a German Riesling. It really needs food; any seafood, cheese, or chicken dish. Medium + finish with a lot of acidity. If dry wine is your desire, you will love this Riesling. — 6 years ago

9.8

2016 Sawtooth Tempranillo, Snake River Valley, Classic Fly Series. I have to say that Meredith Smith, the winemaker, did good on this one. It has all of the classic aromas of a Spanish Tempranillo. Besides the dark red fruit, it has smoke, leather, tobacco, full body, medium tannins, and is spicy on the finish, especially with food. Two thumbs up! — 6 years ago
