2006 Chateau Ste. Michelle Riesling

(about 1 year ago)Sweet, but not too sweet, with a nice medium fruity taste. My biggest complaint with many rieslings is that they almost taste like that nasty fake sugar Sweet & Low crap. This one didn't, and is more than worth the price. The light apricot/apple/citrus (lots of apricot, a little apple, a little citrus) taste I picked up on wasn't subtle, either, but also wasn't overpowering. Everything about this wine was just right. Goldilocks would be impressed.

(about 1 year ago)Sweet, but just the right amount of sweet. Nose of apple and mineral. Tremendous acidity and fruit balance with apple, pear and even a slight bit of honey on the very enjoyable finish. Perfect for summer. Really a great Washington wine - a definite steal for the price. If you like Riesling and you're looking for real value, you have to try this.

(about 1 year ago)This wine delivers consistently, and it's a great price. Sweet, but not overly so. Well-balanced by the acidity. It used to be under $5 in the 90's, and my parents had cases and cases of it.
