If you’re gonna take an 8 year hiatus from making Riesling you’d better come back into the game with a big splash – and Creekside has done just that. This beauty is lively, zippy, zingy and all together what the doctor ordered for a comeback. Nose has lemon and pink grapefruit playing amongst the peach, apricot and delicious apple. On the palate there’s an amazing acid to sweetness ratio and the fruit is of the apricot, white peach and green apple variety. This one’s really beautiful from start to finish; and speaking of finish you’ll find a little lemon drop amongst the long apricot and green apple in that lengthy linger … not perfect but damn close.
