2021 Chateau Ste. Michelle Columbia Valley Riesling
#05-2023
When folks are first introduced to wine, they often enjoy the taste of a refreshing Riesling. Known for its big fruit flavor and off dry character, Riesling is great with cheese and grapes for an afternoon tea or a prelude to the dinner meal. It is also a great "Back Porch Sipper", and a fine companion for the picnic basket!
I once described the taste of Riesling to be like eating a ripe grape. This one goes a little farther than that, with peach and melon in the mix, and a slight citrus breeze in the finish. It is clean and enjoyable. The alcohol content is 12% and Norm's score is 88.
Great with fried chicken or Waldorf Salad, it is best when served with soft cheeses and fresh fruit out on the veranda!
score: 88
price : $10 - $12
