Snoqualmie, Riesling "Winemaker's Select" Columbia Valley 2006

Straw/yellow.

Grain/meal, lemon/lime and spice notes on the nose.

Significant sugar action in the mouth, with pure nectarine flavor emerging, as does an acid/"mineral" chew that slices through the sugar. Great "interplay" of sugar and acid. Very refreshing and taut. I think German Riesling-lovers could find a place in their hearts for this. Not complex, but easy to enjoy. Or will this add nuance with bottle-age?

Drink it. PFG.

$15? Gift
