At one of my tastings this weekend I tasted out Sofia Riesling, 2010, Monterey County, Califorinia. This is from Francis Ford Coppola Winery in Sonoma, California. A nice light, balanced semi-dry Riesling, the flavors were peach, minerality, a hint of honey and a finish of green apple. I thought it was rather nice. Customers enjoyed it and it sold very well. Perfect for your Thanksgiving meal or holiday table.
Winemaker's Notes: Our Sofia Riesling dazzles with full, ripe fruit flavors balanced by a vibrant acidity. Off-dry in style, this Riesling has an intoxicating perfume of pears and apricots, along with luscious flavors of white peaches, green apples, and a hint of pineapple.
Customers loved the distinctive shaped bottle. I must admit that I purchased this not just to enjoy the wine with my sushi, but because I wanted the bottle. I've soaked off the label and put a pour spout in it to use if for my olive oil.
