2006 Glenora Vintner's Select Finger Lake Dry Riesling

[wondersofwine]

Topped the list of the Beverage Tasting Institute (BTI) 2007 World Wine Championship awards for Riesling with a score of 91.

From Norbud Vineyard.

I liked this well enough at upon tasting it during the June offline that I bought a bottle to ship home with a mixed case. Should have bought more of both this and the Hermann Wiemer Dry Riesling.

12% alcohol. Nice golden color with clarity and transparency. Nose seems to fall between apple skin and stone fruit such as peaches or apricots. Impression is of a balanced, fruity wine with sufficient minerals and structure to hold for a couple years.
Paired nicely with shrimp scampi. Had it the second night with broccoli cheese soup and Canadian bacon.
Nice going Glenora.
