Winery Review:

"Cavit Riesling is fresh and lively, with vibrant flavors of peach and apricot.

Thanks to its luscious fruit flavors and refreshing character, Cavit Riesling is perfect for sipping on its own or matched with seafood and white meats, as well as Chinese, Japanese, Thai and Indian-inspired cuisines."

 My Review: On the nose of this wine I get very light, tropical fruit along with floral scents.  When I tasted this wine I was actually a little disappointed.  I usually really like this variety of grape but this Riesling was crafted a little differently than I am used to for a Riesling.  It was very dry with only a hint of sweet tropical fruit with the floral and mineral notes coming through in more depth.  The wine was light and crisp but a little too acidic.  I did not try this wine with food.
