“Cold Creek Vineyard has a long tradition of producing a rich, soft tropical style of Riesling because of the area’s warm temperatures. This 2007 Cold Creek Riesling offers deep fruit-driven aromas and flavors of ripe peach and pineapple, while maintaining a refined elegance and a fresh, clean, refreshing finish. The wine’s concentration is attributed to the older vines that Cold Creek is so well known for. My food choice with this wine is a spicy Thai chicken salad.”
-Bob Bertheau, Head Winemaker
