This second vintage of our Harvest Select Riesling is made in a slightly sweeter style than our “Columbia Valley Riesling� but still shows the elements of classic Chateau Ste. Michelle Riesling. It offers beautiful crisp Washington Riesling character with rich flavors of ripe peaches and apricot. The fresh fruit and decadent character is balanced with crisp acidity to keep the wine in harmony. This is a perfect patio sipping wine or would be a great match with Thai food. Enjoy!

Production keeps climbing for this off-dry (5% residual sugar) bottling from the country?s largest Riesling producer. Loaded with fresh Jonathan apple-flavored fruit, the sweetness is nicely balanced by the fresh, natural acids. Highlights of cinnamon and caramel add further pleasure to a wine with wide appeal. —Paul Gregutt,

Frankly sweet, but the acidity tucks in nicely to balance the pear and floral flavors. Finishes with charm. Drink now. 140,000 cases made. —Harvey Steiman,
