Viento 2007 Underwood Mountain Vineyard Riesling (Columbia Gorge (OR))

Country: US / Underwood Mountain Vineyard
Variety: Riesling Oregon
Winery: Viento / Columbia Gorge (OR)

Still spritzy, very tart and tangy, with orange peel and lemon drop flavors. Perhaps showing just a bit more intensity than the 2006, this is a terrific follow-up with the same mix of delicacy and power that suggests that the Columbia Gorge AVA may well be the best site in the Pacific Northwest to grow Riesling.
