    Cave Spring rocks Riesling, and this off-dry (16g/L) version is sexy and mineral-drenched. It's a perfect mix of sweet and tangy, the citrus and tree fruits dense with complex phenolic highlights that add to a wine that's textural, full bodied and long.

    Slightly spritzy, this zesty effort puts a mineral base under flavors of fresh lime and mixed citrus. There is enough residual sugar—18 g/L—to offset the bracing acids, without turning the wine overly sweet.

    This is an elegant Riesling, with pleasing, gin-like botanical scents and flavors. Along with the fresh herbs come citrus notes of Meyer lemon and Key lime, finished with a gentle hint of honey.
