Featherstone 2004 Off-Dry Riesling

Author :Michael Pinkus - Grape Guy
DescriptionDescription  People are going to start thinking I’m obsessed with summer, and who knows, maybe I am - here’s yet another wine I can recommend for summer patio sipping. This off-dry Riesling is more dry than off, with notes of mango, apricot, lychee, pineapple and just a tinge of green apple – and some great floral notes to boot. The taste is a little more reserved including exotic fruit like kiwi and some citrusy-lime. The finish is pleasant and refreshing with just the barest hint of spritz. This 2004 is almost sold out so hurry and grab yourself a bottle, or two. Recently, I got a sneak peak at the upcoming 2005 version and was quite impressed – tastes like Featherstone has another great Riesling on the way.
