Wine Details
Spring flowers, lemon oil, and fresh white peach suck you into the deeply-scented nose, with delicious apricot and a touch of key lime on the front of the palate. Crisp and richly textured, this wine is well-balanced with plenty of mouth-filling pear, nectarine and a hint of green apple. The finish is very fruity, showing refreshing acidity to balance the residual sugar, providing a lovely sensation of dried fruit and minerality that lingers on the palate.

Sourced from an astronomically popular Napa winery, Lot 633 is a Californian take on the German Rheingau style that I just couldn’t pass up. Made with all estate grown fruit from a cool climate Carneros vineyard, this is an elegant, pretty expression of Riesling that I think will be a huge hit for solo sipping and food pairing alike.
Boasting multiple 90+ point scores and gold medals under its original label, it can be found for $30 in the tasting room. Thanks to the laws of supply and demand (and yours truly to make the deal), it’s available here for less than half the price.

Riesling to stock up on
Definitely a riesling worth stocking up on as your go-to white wine, very food friendly.

Tart and fruity
Tart and fruity, a bit too sweet for me, as I prefer some of the very dry German rieslings that are difficult to find in the US. Great value, though.

Nice Riesling
Nice crushed apple, white flower and flint on the nose. There is an initial sweetness which is quickly cut with tart minerality then the wine fills out again on the palate.

Excellent Value
I would say this is an excellent Riesling at an incredible price. Super smooth. Complexity is there if you are into that but this is a bottle that wine drinkers of all levels will appreciate and enjoy. A steal at this price.

too sweet
I wouldn't recommend it for solo sipping. I am probably not the best person to judge a sweet wine, I bought it to pair a spicy dinner but I didn't enjoy it.

Great potential
Nice semi-dry Reisling, lots of citrusy tartness with green apple on the finish. I think it will be really great with a few more years of aging, if I can keep it around that long!

Perfect
I had this tonight with homemade pizza. It was a great pairing. This wine had just the right amount of sweet and had a clean finish. My husband thinks some of the sweet wines have an after taste and this one did not! I will buy again!

Nice
We had this with a Cajun shrimp Pasta. I paired nicely. The fruit came out with each sip, and it tasted better as the temperature of the wine warmed up. Be sure not to serve this one too chilled. It opened up rather nicely. Lemon on the nose. No minerality.

Enjoyable
A nice light wine. Not too sweet but a nice lingering flavor. Good table wine and can stand up to heavier meals.
