Fielding Lot No. 17 Riesling 2013, VQA Niagara Peninsula

Huff Estates Sculpture Series Riesling Reserve 2011

From the winery:. "Pale straw in colour, our dry-edged riesling
is marked by white peach and mandarin aromas supported by delicate floral notes. A gush of acidity rewards the palate with recurring peach and notes of orange peel on the way to a mineral-laden finish."

Outstanding. We picked up a couple bottles while visiting the Huff Estates. Wish we had of picked up a few more in hindsight. Tasted September 2012.
