| 2005 WILLAMETTE VALLEY RIESLING | $15 / $162
BOTTLE / CASE |
Vinified in the traditional German style, this off-dry Riesling opens with gorgeous aromas of dried flowers, spiced honey and candied apricot. Luxurious and full in the mouth, but with the palate-cleansing acidity to balance a leggy two percent residual sugar. Harvested from some of our oldest blocks with vine ages from 14 to 28 years, the wine shows the complexity and nuance found in mature plantings.
