Snoqualmie 2006 Winemaker’s Select Riesling (Columbia Valley (WA))

Variety: Riesling Washington
Winery: Snoqualmie / Columbia Valley (WA)

With full ripeness, density and concentration, this keeps its superb balance at just 10.8% alcohol and 5% residual sugar. The dynamic tension plays out beautifully, and doesn’t veer into any sort of sugary slackness. This has the sort of weight and complexity you would expect in a $30 wine.
