2007 Sweet Riesling

Reviews

88 Points! BEST VALUE. Definitely sweet, but balanced with enough acidity to make it feel refreshing... offering pineapple, mango and a touch of honey as the finish lingers.

Though the label states "Sweet Riesling," it isn't overly so. The color is a pale watery yellow. The aroma is muted, with a little green fruit and herbal quality. The taste is bright and expressive, and at 8.5 percent alcohol with a touch of sweetness, it'll take down any amount of ketchup.

The bold flavor of Mexican mole can be a wine-pairing challenge. The heat of chile peppers often makes red wines taste bitter or alcoholic. So try a slightly sweet white wine like Pacific Rim Sweet Riesling. With just 8.5% alcohol, intense tropical fruit and lime flavors, and generous sweetness, this thirst-quenching sipper cools the heat while curring rich sauce with good acidity.

Balance is what Riesling is all about, and although this wine has a high (7 percent) residual sugar, it also has enough acidity to keep it from being flabby. Its bright peach and pineapple and other tropical flavors are a great match with spicy Thai or other Asian foods.

Sweet, yes, but in a balanced way; this is a wine for dinner, not dessert. Clean nose of stones, tangerines and candied plum; mouth-filling palate with tangerine and candied lemon on the finish. Ideal with sweet Asian dishes. Refreshingly, just 8.5 percent alcohol by volume.
