Huber Terrassen Riesling 2006

Like some of your favorite friends, Rieslings can have more than one personality - just not in the same bottle. Some are sweeter (especially German), others are drier. It's all about the grape and maturation, aging, blah blah...

But anyway, back to the wine. Huber Winery of Austria produces a lovely dry style in its Terrassen Riesling. It has a pale, warm yellow color and scents of citrus, mineral, and a hint of peach. On the palate, expect bright acidity up front followed by lemony citrus and a mineral finish.

It's a tasty number that should pair well with citrus-marinated seafood and white wine-based pasta dishes.
