NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Pikes Hills & Valleys Riesling is a delightfully aromatic and balanced white wine.On the nose, aromas of honey, lime, grapefruit, and white flowers come to life. On the palate, flavors of honeysuckle, green apple, and a hint of mineral notes are present. The wine is medium bodied and finishes with a nice, crisp and refreshing acidity. This is a great wine for any occasion and will pair well with a variety of dishes.
