Tasting Notes: This an Okanagan Riesling that will remind you, pleasantly, of the mineral and citrus, off-dry Riesling of Mosel, Germany. The subtle nose displays aromas of lemon, gooseberry, smooth slate and kumquat with dried-ginger spice. The off-dry palate offers a full, oily texture with flavours of tangerine, lemon/lime, green apple and pineapple. Crisp acidity balances the concentrated sweet fruit flavours and helps create a bright, refreshing wine with a long, satisfying finish.
