NOSE: Dry in style, this Riesling has big white peach and stone fruit aromatics.
PALATE: On the palate you encounter limestone and bright crisp apple. The medium body and perfect acidity on the finish make this wine ideal to pair with a variety of food.

Vineyard Notes
This vineyard is located 1.68 miles from Good Harbor Bay with a max of 1,020 feet above sea level. With this vineyard facing south, the cold air drains from north to south and eventually to the west.
Production Notes
The fruit comes from two vineyards that can wait until the end of harvest because of how clean the fruit remained. The wine then went through a long and slow fermentation.
Food Pairing Notes
A dry Riesling will be perfect with fish, seafood and white meat dishes.

I'm very picky about my wines and this is one of my very favorite Dry Rieslings! It's very crisp and fruit forward. I like it on any day that ends with "y"!!
