Tasting Panel Synopsis:This wine is even closer to the classic Rhine model than the '05 vintage we carried. It too offers a nosefull of classic Riesling aromas - floral, stone fruits, lychee, and hints of bitter almond. But the acidity was so high in 2007 that there is just a trace of fruity goodness to keep it in balance, and to offset the natural bitter almond that is a Riesling hallmark (and part of its allure!) This bottling is ready for immediate enjoyment, though it will evolve nicely over the next several years into a more complex and serious wine.
Suggested Pairings: Served well chilled, this wine makes a great summer refresher, an ideal picnic wine, and almost a required accompaniment to daytime concerts. Once you try this wine with cold chicken, good deli sandwiches, anything salty, or even a simple snack of fruit and cheese... well, if you try any of these and can resist coming back for more, you're more evolved than I.
The current generation of Tudors descends from 600 years of grape-growing and winemaking tradition, both in CA as well as their native Croatia. Fortunately for us, the Tudors take their wine-making heritage seriously. Perhaps even more fortunately, they are also serious about having fun. For example, the dog on the label is their own Brigadoon Bull Terrier - this "Radical Dog" may not yet have acquired a taste for the Tudor wines, she loves grapes fresh from the vineyard!
Only 500 cases produced.
