Pölka Dot Crisp Riesling'08, Germany

A Crisp (meaning medium-dry) Riesling from the Pfalz Region in Germany, known to be the best one for the production of Riesling!



Technical Data: 100% Riesling . Aged in Stainless Steel Tanks to preserve its freshness.

Description: Light bright gold color with green hues. Strong green apple aromas followed up by pear and lime. Refreshing medium bodied crisp wine, showing off a nice acidity and a complex palate. Flavors of white flowers, orange blossom, lime and green apple are entangled as well as a hint of caramel. Long lasting finish.
