Fox Run Riesling

Fox Run Vineyards (8/10)
Riesling, 2002
Finger Lakes, New York
$9.99

A white wine that we both agreed on, very quickly. I had this one chilled in the fridge and pulled it out tonight to open it for a risotto. So we poured a couple of glasses to enjoy with our dinner.

This wine isn't too dry, and isn't too sweet. It isn't as sweet as the Relax Riesling, and we both liked that. Very fruity, excellent flavor. I couldn't drink too much, unfortunately, because I wanted to finish the glass I poured. This one is a keeper and we will buy it again. AND it isn't very expensive and it is local!

Relax Riesling

Relax (Deb:8/10, Kevin:7/10)
Riesling, 2003

We've finally found a white wine we like. Sweet, but not overpowering. Well balanced between the sweet and the dry. Very light, a nice complement to lighter dishes (such as the cornish game hens we served for Christmas Eve).
