| 2013 Crane Lake Riesling |
Name: Crane Lake
Variety: Riesling
Country: United States
Region: California
Year: 2013
Price: $5.95
Shop Review: The trademark German red grape varietal Dornfelder has a lovely purity of soft red berry fruit. Integrated soft tannins combined with forward fruit flavors make for a perfectly balanced everyday sipping wine. Great with grilled red meat, sausage, and chicken. Best served lightly chilled.
My Review: Yet another Crane Lake! I caught some more pears on the nose with this Riesling. Also, a little alcohol came through in the bouquet despite only a 11.5% ABV. Powerfully sweet initially that smoothed out nicely into a more enjoyable finish. Probably more enjoyable as a dessert wine for my taste.
Food: I did not taste this with food.
