I love German Riesling and this value-priced wine is amazing. Aromas of sweet pear and nectarine are pretty and enticing, persisting on the palate with mineral, spice, and honey notes. Beautifully balanced, it’s a wine that’s designed for the dinner table. Great with chicken apple sausage, Asian stir fries, curries, or main salad with fruit and goat’s milk cheese. Available at 15 Degrees C in Templeton, this highly-rated wine sells for only $12.
