Brotherhood Riesling is a premium white wine produced by Brotherhood Winery, one of the oldest wineries in the United States. The grapes are sourced from the Hudson Valley appellation, known for its unique microclimate and mineral-rich soil. The vineyard features steep slopes and a cool climate, which allows the grapes to ripen slowly and develop complex flavors. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing and cool fermentation to preserve the delicate aromas and flavors of the grapes. The resulting wine is crisp, refreshing, and well-balanced, with notes of citrus, green apple, and honey. It pairs well with spicy Asian cuisine, seafood, and salads.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Brotherhood Riesling offers an aromatic nose of freshly cut grass, white flowers, and citrus fruits.On the palate, it is a medium-bodied, dry-tasting wine with a crisp acidity and a pleasant minerality. Notes of green apple, lemon, and white peach are complemented by a hint of honey and a subtle spiciness. The finish is light and refreshing, with a lingering hint of citrus. This is a great summer sipper and a nice accompaniment to light seafood and poultry dishes.
