Hillick & Hobbs Estate Dry Riesling 2021 Review
Paul Hobbs is internationally known, but had humble beginnings in New York where, as a kid, helped his father convert their orchards to vineyards. After a storied career on the West Coast and collaborations in Europe and Argentina, he planted a vineyard from the ground up in his home state. Based on this bottle, this new venture is going quite well. This wine is floral and savory on the nose with honey, slight rosemary and thyme hints, and a deep-down orange peel note. The palate is very balanced with a juicy roundness that plays well with the angular savory notes and bright acidity of the wine.
