Totally delicious #fingerlakes #riesling , perhaps not as layered as the German and Alsace examples but floral, citrus notes and notably no petrol on the nose which can be polarizing. Bright acidity on the palate, absolutely dry finish, excellent wine to pair with spicier Punjabi Indian cuisine. — 2 years ago
Beautiful very dry #fingerlakes #riesling - Bit bashful on the nose, faint apple/pear but more beeswax, lanolin. Delicious plush acidity and lush texture on palate, long finish. Excellent paired with a spicy Sri Lankan plate. — 3 years ago
Another unusual varietal from #chateaumontelena - Kaffir lime, green apple nose. Orchard fruit, pear on palate, lovely luscious mouthfeel, medium plus acidity, slightly sweet finish. Excellent #pottervalley #riesling to pair with Sichuan chicken on a hot Texas summer evening. — 3 years ago
2014. Light petrol/rubber interplay, with black lime, lime pith and smoky cherrywood, graphite, underripe pineapple, igneous rock dripping with lemon. Sweet pineapple, lemon essence infused into lemon marmalade and emerging profoundly drier. Lime reduction, candied kalamansa with an ethereal distillation of floral and mystery citrus admixture.

The 2019 Chupacabra blend from Merkin Vineyards features 70% #riesling , 20% #chardonnay , and 10% #sauvignonblanc . This unfiltered wine has gardenia, quince, apricot jam aromas. Well-balanced with good acidity and a luscious palate texture. Delicious dry wine from MJ Kennan. #caduceuscellars — 5 years ago
This is your #riesling if you’re not a fan of the petrol / diesel notes, once this has had a chance to breathe a bit. While I don’t mind those, this is a nice alternative terroir expression - subtle floral and peach notes on nose. @Kurt Schuster is spot on with the crystalline descriptor. The palate is more about the luscious fruit texture backed by sturdy acidity and a touch of RS rather than a lot of complexity. Where else can you get #grandcru #alsaceriesling other than #costco for ~$18? — 3 years ago
Chalky lemon and lime mineral nose, candied grapefruit rind, crystalline green apple, Bosc pear. Perfect balance in an adroit turn from tart citrus to tangy apple. Every facet shining. Lemon persists with a salinity that keeps giving. Sublime.

2006. Rich, filtered apple gold. Nose of Bosc pear, baked lemon, warm yellow apple, lemon tart, coconut husk, dry sage, roasted almond, and honey crystal. Palate shows honey flash before flood of lemon juices, lime juice and pith, sweet grapefruit and lemongrass. Sweet at 16, balanced and finishing dry and refreshing!

Interesting #santaynez #riesling - tart citrus, golden apple, touch of petrol. Golden yellow color in the glass; lemon curd, applesauce finish on the palate. Delightful wine. — 7 months ago
