    Smoke and caramelized sugar notes lend a sultry tone to this racy, streamlined Kabinett. It's vibrant and laced with fresh green and herbal notes, replacing more typical stone-fruit flavors. Delicate honey sweetness lingers softly on the finish.

    A vein of lime skin and granite lingers throughout this lithe, focused wine. White grapefruit flavors penetrate the palate, along with accents of saffron and sugar cookie that dart playfully along the finish.

    Semi-sweet in style with a ripe, intensely fruity palate, this delicate little Riesling is surprisingly complex with layers of wax, honey and lemon-pith that reverberate on a brisk, minerally palate.
