Tasting Notes and Food Pairing Suggestions

  • Roasted pork loin with braised red cabbage
  • Spicy Thai curries
  • Crispy pork spring rolls

This off-dry German-style Riesling from the Niagara Peninsula displays perfect varietal character and is a great introductory wine for those who have not yet jumped on the Riesling bandwagon. Bracing acidity is in perfect balance with residual sugar here, dispelling the stereotype that all Rieslings are cloyingly sweet. Featuring heady aromas of spiced pear and petrol on the nose, and white peach and apricot flavors in the mouth, this is stylish, well-crafted wine.
