Fort Berens Riesling 2024

Lillooet, British Columbia, CanadaJust off-dry, this is a super fresh version of cool climate riesling that combines tropical notes with limes and apples, finishing with a mouth puckering zest. It is a clean, bright white that would pair nicely at the dinner table. It won a gold medal at the National Wine Awards of Canada, a notoriously tough competition to earn a gold or platinum label. As mentioned, it is food friendly, with menu options that include Indian or Thai curry, or beef or pork tacos. For a bit of a twist, try pairing it with fried tofu and a mild chilli sauce. Whether you drink it now or hold onto it, it will age effortlessly.Tasted: 03 December 2025Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
