Selbach Riesling (Fish Label) 2013
Mosel, GermanyHeady peach and ripe pear aromas mark this juicy, mouth-filling riesling, always a memorable sight due to its colourful fish label (designed by a Vancouver artist). Steep, south facing Mosel slopes yield the stony backbone and depth of orchard fruit, expressed in a ripe, off-dry, shining style. Lime rind, nectarine and apricot blossom trail off with fine, nutty spice. Great intensity, fantastic value and a welcome 10.5 percent alcohol makes this an ideal pairing for gentle/moderately spiced curries.Tasted: 17 April 2015Tasted by: Prices:BC | $18.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
