Claar 2006 Riesling (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US /
Variety: Riesling Washington
Winery: Claar / Columbia Valley (WA)

This is a bit stinky right out of the bottle, with some sour, rotten egg aromas. Ultimately they blow off, but there’s still a palate impression of sulfur and burnt match. The net effect is to put a damper on the fruit, which pokes through the sulfurous fog tasting rather soapy and limpid.
