The excellent vintage yielded a lush and juicy Riesling. A Feinherb Riesling simply means it's not bone dry and has a gentle touch of residual sugar. This is an ideal wine for those who love to sip aromatic white wines and don't forget that it's this style of wine that works best with assertively spiced foods be it spicy enchiladas or a Thai curry.

Staff Pick Notes

YUM YUM YUMMY! This wine is just yummy. I feel like a broken record here, forever doing staff picks on Rieslings. But let me tell you, I have been working here for 4 years, and I have tasted a lot of wine. Despite tasting thousands, somehow I keep coming back to the Rieslings.

The more I drink this, the more I want to drink this and just chill.

They are careful to retain the delightful honeyed, flinty flavors that the best sweet Rieslings have always displayed. Alsace, of...
