Anthony Road - 2008 Dry Riesling

Tasted on: April 30, 2010
Purchased for:
$13.99
Wine Data:
  • Alcohol Content: 12.4%
  • Residual Sugar: 0.7%
Tasting:

Appearance:
Clear faint yellow color with the slightest tinge of green.

Aroma: Very nice floral aroma. Not very strong, but alluring nonetheless.

Taste / Texture:
Bursting with flavor. Medium body with excellent mouth-feel. The balance of acidity, sugar, and alcohol seems perfect.

Aftertaste:
Very nice. There is a relatively long finish with a slight coating of the tongue. The aftertaste itself is quite pleasant.

Decision:
I really like the taste and balance of this wine. A very solid showing for a riesling with a cloying sweetness that doesn't affect its dryness. I would pair this wine with a light summer dish, perhaps even something with shrimp. 90/100
