Château Ste. Michelle 2008 Riesling

89 Points

The elegant vibrancy of this wine allowed it to stand out in a category of excellent values. Bright and effusive floral and peach aromas are followed by lovely flavours of ripe pear, peach, apple and citrus fruits, with a lively, refreshing acidity to balance the pleasantly off-dry, mineral-tinged finish. A versatile food wine with the ability to compliment everything from light salads and shellfish, to spicy Thai and Indian cuisine. Delicious, mouth-watering and eminently drinkable, this graceful wine shows harmony and balance beyond its modest price.

Price List:

  • Alberta: $17
