Ridgepoint Wines 2004 Medium Dry Riesling

DescriptionDescription  Sometimes you take a sniff of a wine and get a familiar scent that you can’t quite put your finger on … well, that isn’t the case here. This wine is predominantly apple, yellow Delicious I would say, with hints of lime tartness. On the taste, more apples, this time a Spartan – because while it does have apple sweetness, there is a bit of a tangy zing, so it’s not too sweet. Finally, there’s a lingering apple finish, which is reminiscent of Granny Smith … so this one is apple from start to finish. It also has a remarkable sparkling taste, without the fizz, that can best be described as refreshing, crisp, easy drinking and very delicious.
