Yamhill Valley Vineyards Riesling 2014 Review
While this is a fruit-driven, New World style of Riesling, it has just enough acidity to balance out the palate. Aromatic notes of white peach, ripe tangerine, and gasoline jump out of the glass, the peach fruit leaning even riper on the palate. A burst of citrusy acidity washes the palate clean, brightening the finish.
