Floral aromas of orange blossom and jasmine are complemented by fresh notes of green apple and grapefruit. On the palate, this bright, yet luscious wine evolves with flavors of nectarine, white peach and honey-crisp apple. The minerality and beautiful acidity provide an invigorating finish. Our Dry Riesling pairs best with bright, fresh flavors. Fresh cilantro, lime juice and zest, raw fish, and jasmine rice play well with the floral and acidic notes of this wine. Chef Chris suggests pairing with butter poached lobster, halibut crudo, or burrata crostini with avocado, cilantro and lime. With its orange-water scents and the clarity and freshness of rain water, this wine carries its tart fruit with light tension. It’s not a big presence, but what’s present is good, especially if there’s Cantonese-style flounder with ginger and scallions steaming on the stove.
