Ranked #57 of Jeb Dunnuck's Top 100 Wines of 2023
A Riesling with initial aromas of classic white flower and stone fruit, evolving into soft chamomile, tropical notes and wet stone. The palate is energetic with a beautiful phenolic grip and notes of fresh lemon, honey and petrichor.
95 Jeb Dunnuck A medium golden hue, the 2021 Riesling has fresh and attractive aromatics of ripe peach, citrus blossoms, and lime candy. Fully dry, this medium-bodied white has a wonderful core of fresh acidity and concentration. It offers a beautifully elegant texture and reveals notes of savory herbs, mouthwatering salinity, fresh lime zest, green apple, and dark minerals. I love this wine for its impressive, layered aromatics and its savory character.
93 Wine Enthusiast Vivid petrol, peach skin and smoked ham flavors signal that this new brand from Jackson Family Wines makes a classic, varietally correct Riesling. It comes from a cool pocket of vineyards in an otherwise warm region, bringing tangy acidity, mineral accents and a fresh, palate-cleansing texture.
