Professional Review: If you like your Rieslings on the sweet side, this pretty wine is for you. It's brisk in Central Coast acidity, with citrus, peach, honeysuckle and spice flavors that finish clean and long.

My Review: As with a lot of Rieslings that I try, I get a slight soapy scent on the nose, almost always. Not really complaining about it though. It was cool and minerally. On the palate, right away, it was very light, almost no body. It was sweet on the front, dry on the mid with a very delayed finish. So on the finish, I might have to disagree with the Vintage Cellar review but none the less, a great Riesling. I like my Rieslings on the sweet side, and this definitely fit the bill. I had this wine at a tasting without a meal.
