Heron Hill 2007 Semi Dry Riesling

The Heron Hill 2007 Semi Dry Riesling ($12.99) has won a number of award (Sweepstakes Award, Gold — Monterey Wine Competition and Gold — Grand Harvest Awards), and is a great bargain buy for a Finger Lakes Riesling — especially for those who like their Rieslings on the sweeter side. It’s Heron Hill’s most popular Riesling and it’s sourced from a variety of vineyards. Though fruity characters dominate, there is a slight minerality and a crisp finish that make this a refreshing pick. Heron Hill recommends that the wine be paired with Asian cuisine, finger foods, and sweet and sour glazes.
