From Chateau Ste. Michelle, a great value Riesling under $20. Floral with lemon-lime citrus aromas on the nose. Off-dry, medium-bodied and mouth-watering with citrus, flinty and bitter almond flavours on the palate. Chill and enjoy with mild curries and spicy crab cakes.

Riesling food pairings: roast chicken, spicy pasta dishes, shrimp tempura, grilled salmon with lemon sauce, duck liver pate.

Reviews and Ratings

Christian Marcoux rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Bright and crisp Riesling from Chateau Ste Michelle, the 2018 vintage offers aromas of green apple, citrus zest, honeysuckle, petroleum and ginger. The wine has a light body, and delivers well-integrated acidity and a mellow finish. Palate: yellow apple, lemon, honey, saline and ginger. Enjoy.
From the Columbia Valley, Washington, a fresh and floral Riesling with lemon-lime zest, white florals and mineral flavours mouth-watering on the palate. At its best now. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
