I am a Riesling drinker and prefer a good dry german one. However, this is one of th best Rieslings I have ever tasted. It is a perfect balance on the sweet – dry continum of Rieslings to be fun to drink, easy on the palatte, and not too sacrin. The pear and peach notes truley shine through making it perfectly timed for the season. I know I did buy enough of this one.

Loved it! Not too sweet, but not really dry. Very smooth flavor. Great summer wine.

My husband and I have tried several varieties of Riesling. The Calamity Sue is very pleasing to the palate. If you like light wines you will enjoy this. I paired it with Tomato Bruschetta and the flavor combination was fantastic!

This fabulous, crisp white wine has bright acidity, which lends itself to pair well with spicier foods. I think this wine will be included with my Cinco de Mayo celebration!

Personally I guess I am just used to Riesling being a bit more on the sweet side. I found this to be a bit acidic for my taste. I like a Riesling occassionally, and would prefer it to be more like the german rieslings on the sweeter side.
