Description
With 7 Rieslings on the Cave Spring roster you have to believe that this is their favourite grape to work with. This is their sweetest version and is a real Rosh Hashanah wine. Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year, and on that holiday it is tradition to eat pieces of apple dipped in honey to signify having a sweet new year. A nose of apples and honey with a palate that echoes the nose, while adding some peach and floral into the mix. The finish is a total apples and honey experience – which leads me to believe that maybe they should seriously consider serving this at Rosh Hashanah time. Price: $59.95 / 375ml
