12 Bottles - 2010 Organic Riesling
By: McFadden Vineyard
In: Mendocino, CA
Buy this organic Riesling with only a tinge of sweetness and pair it with some exotic flavored foods as a great palate cleanser
Experience
A very tasty off-dry (which means slightly sweet) Riesling from Mendocino, one of the northern most wine growing regions of California. This has good fruit and acid balanced with just the right amount of sweetness, making this an excellent wine to pair with foods - especially spicier foods.
Winery
With names like Guinness and Jameson McFadden, it might seem odd that this family ended up in the wine business. However, over the years, McFadden's grapes have represented a significant portion of many award winning wines in Napa, Sonoma, and Mendocino counties. Unlike many organic farms, McFadden Vineyard was organic from the very beginning. These wines are made from organically grown grapes - meaning that at no time were any chemical fertilizers or pesticides ever used in the production of the grapes in McFadden's wines.
