Wine Review: This white gold colored Auslese level Riesling opens with a ripe bosc pear bouquet with a hint of apple and wet stone. On the palate, this wine is light bodied, slightly acidic, zippy and pretty sweet. The flavor profile is a tasty ginger and ripe green apple blend with hints of lime, bosc pear and a touch of minerality. The finish is sweet and the flavors linger for quite some time. This sweet wine would pair well with pecan chicken. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: The 2010 Urziger Wurzgarten Auslese is lush and ripe, with complex layers of peach, apple and citrus flavors. Its full, fruit driven sweetness is held together by the intensely taut, racy acidity that is characteristic of this vintage.
