Washington Wine Grapes: Riesling – PaulGregutt.com

February 8, 2010

Icon: Pacific Rim 2008 Organic Riesling; $14. Also from organic grapes, this is also off-dry, the sweetness perfectly proportionate to the acid, with refined flavors of honey, jasmine and tea. The classy label shows a raised etching of a grapevine with the soil cut away, revealing a trailing root system.
