A great example of a Washington Riesling! Pear, apple, citrus and floral. Minerality and fruity. On the palate. Beautifully balanced and a great price point!

Enjoyable start or ending for the evening. Mild taste, mostly you can feel pear as well light acidity and sweetness.

Crisp and fruity with a nice mineral presence. Another Smith classic that does well with any occasion.

Like biting into a peach - great entry level Riesling. Acidity is super high (almost tastebud killing)

Nectarine, granny smith apple, lime, chalk. Previous vintages were more floral and generous. This one is lean, more Trocken in style.

You can't pass a bottle like this without giving it a shot. Points for creativity & spirit. A little sweet for me, but pretty. Note the photo-bomber.

Pairs well with goat cheese! Easily one of my few new favorite whites.
