Aromas and flavors of peach and apricot leap to the senses with our luscious Semi Sweet Riesling. Abundant natural tartness beautifully balances the sweetness of the finish.

Bracingly dry, yet dancing with complex aromas of peach, pear and lime peel. This wine was grown, fermented and blended by 3 generations of the Stamp family working together.
