Milbrandt 2009 Traditions Riesling (Columbia Valley (WA))

Country: US / Washington
Variety: Riesling
Winery: Milbrandt / Traditions

At just 12.5% alcohol, this comes across as dry and quite fresh, with vivid grapefruit flesh and acidity. Some mint and lemon flavors sneak in also. The emphasis is clearly on citrus rather than peach or apricot; a fine food wine.
