Wine of the Week: Trefethen Estate Dry Riesling 2005 (CA) $20

Thursday October 5, 2006
The Trefethen Estate Dry Riesling is 100% estate grown, a notable attribute even before popping the cork! This vibrant Riesling boasts exceptional acidity and brilliant minerality, allowing it to be the perfect companion to many "hard to pair" food options. Give it a go with fajitas, fish tacos, or even steak and bean burritos with spicy salsa. As for the flavor profile, The Trefethen Estate Dry Riesling packs a serious citrus punch - plenty of lemon, lime and hints of peach round out the initial impression. A great wine to sip with or without food and one to keep in mind to accomodate the myriad of flavors presented at your Thanksgiving meal next month.
