The best non-Poet's leap, non-Eroica riesling from the PNW that I have tried. Fairly dry with good minerality. A petrol note hang around quite a while in the mid-palate which is not something I have run into before. Picked it up for $13.00 at costco and will definitely be going back for more.

Fairly dry but refreshing riesling. Not a big nose, some pear, Green apples and unripe apricots. On the palate, refreshing balance, notes of minerality.

A riesling on the drier side. Yellow gold with medium body. Grassy, floral aromas with notes of honey and peach.

Well done with nice touches of apple, honey and lemon and finally some minerality. Relatively dry with a long finish and some backbone. I think this could evolve and gain complexity if laid down for another 4-6 years. Would recommend.

I thought this was very good riesling, especially for the price. For me, it had plenty of what I appreciate most in rieslings; very, but not completely dry; lots of minerality, almost steely; an aroma of flowers and sweetness that is not reflected in the taste. This results in a pleasant contrast between the floral aromas and the dry, minerality of the wine. Very good for the money and will buy more...

A really nice Riesling for the price. Smells of honey, pear, and toast on the nose. Tastes floral with tropical notes. A bit of alcohol on the finish, but not terribly off-putting. Actaully stood up quite nicely to the spicy food we ate with it.

We don't drink a lot of white wines and prefer our wines more on the dry side. This has 1.1% RS and was good though not great in our books. Probably a well made wine, just not really in our wheelhouse. Light almost silver color. Nose is strong honeysuckle with a little scalene or or petrol in there as well. Taste is apricot, mineral with nice acids. Medium-long finish. Went well with our tilapia dinner.

Serious effort in the style of a warmer weather Riesling. Lots of flint and mineral. The lower rating is because it isn't to my taste, but it is very well made.
