Sommelier's Note

A complex dry Riesling with aromas of ripe stone fruits, white peach, and orange zest. It delivers razor-sharp acidity balanced by rich fruit depth and a persistent, flinty mineral finish.

Pairs Well With

Pan-seared sea bass with lemongrass ginger reduction and steamed jasmine rice.
