Waxwing 2013 Ventana Vineyards Riesling (Arroyo Seco)

Country: US / Ventana Vineyards
Variety: Riesling California
Winery: Waxwing / Arroyo Seco

Squeezed lemon rinds and a faint whiff of petrol show on an otherwise reluctant nose from this off-dry wine. The palate reveals a racy, finely focused acidity that zings across the palate, hiding the residual sugar at first before allowing the ripe nectarine and apple soufflé elements to carry the flavors.
