VC Review: "Our South Island Reisling has a range and combination of flavors unlike any other. These flavors span citrus, root ginger, white peach, spices and florals. eco.love Riesling is made in balance to an off-dry style. Food Pairing: Asian Fusion, Seafood, Curry, and anything spicy"

My Review: This was probably my favorite white wine of the day, it smelled like a freshly-squeezed citrus drink – one specifically that I can’t remember the name of, which is irritating. I want to say it smells a tad bit like lemon-lime Powerade also. This wine was not too sweet-tasting, and just somewhat sour. The most comparable fruit would be a nectarine. I bought a bottle so I could continue smelling it (still haven’t figured out that exact drink), and had it that night with “Wild” flavored hot wings from Buffalo Wild Wings as the “anything spicy” suggests. They complemented each other well, making the wings taste tangier (a plus). It was a very informal pairing but I can see how savory foods go well with this wine.
