Seven Hills Riesling

We are nearing the end of our stock of the Spreitzer Riesling from the Rheingau area of Germany.  So that means we must change our feature over to another Riesling!  Take a gander at our information about the Seven Hills Riesling and join us to try one of the newest Rieslings available in the state!
 
 

Seven Hills

Riesling

Columbia Valley, Washington

2011

 

Seven Hills is one of the oldest wineries in Walla Walla, Washington.  Even though it just began in 1988, it is one of the most influential wineries in the area, producing more vineyard-designate wines than anyone else in the region.  Casey McClellan and his wife Vicky founded Seven Hills together and work alongside each other in the day-to-day affairs (from customer relations to blending the wines).

 Tasting notes:

Aromas of Fuji apple, lime, grapefruit, with hints of vanilla and cardamom.  The nose is confirmed on the palate with flavors of grapefruit, lychee, and a crisp minerality.

 Pairings:

Pair this with broiled scallops, flaky white fish like trout, and arugula salads.
