Rosewood Riesling: The New Batch (June 2015)

2013 Mima’s Block Riesling – $18.20 – Winery Only – **** – This would be the “serious” Riesling from Rosewood.  It’s very dry but nice and balanced.  There are nice mineral notes on the nose with lemon and lime.  This is a very well balanced Rieslng.  This will be an excellent wine to pair with Chicken, Pork … honestly I could run down the list but this will pair with just about anything except the reddest of meats.

2014 Süssreserve Riesling – $14.95 – Vintages 258806 – ***1/2+ – This is the fun one.  I always look forward to keeping the Süss in my house year round.  It’s off-dry, light and fruity.  The citrus flavours are in the glass but you get a lot more apple and peach.  Compared to previous vintages 2014 is softer on the palate.  This still drinks a little too easy and will be a great patio sipper for the summer.
