WINE DESCRIPTION
J. Lohr Vineyards & Wines Bay Mist White Riesling is a refreshing and aromatic wine that showcases the best of California's Central Coast. Produced by J. Lohr Vineyards & Wines, a family-owned and operated winery with a commitment to sustainable farming practices, this wine is made from Riesling grapes grown in the cool climate of Monterey County. The vineyard's proximity to the Pacific Ocean and the morning fog that rolls in from the bay create ideal growing conditions for this varietal. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing and cool fermentation to preserve the delicate flavors and aromas of the grapes. The resulting wine is crisp and bright, with notes of green apple, peach, and citrus. It pairs well with spicy Asian cuisine, fried foods, and spicy dishes.

ORIGINS
Winery: J. Lohr Vineyards & Wines
Region: Central Coast California
The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States.
The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.CUSTOMER RATING
