Chateau Ste. Michelle Columbia Valley Riesling 750ml

Chateau Ste. Michelle is a Washington State winery, and this Riesling is one of its core wines. The label names the appellation, Columbia Valley, and the fruit comes from vineyards across that broad region.

It's 100% Riesling, fermented cool at 55 to 60°F to keep it fresh. The winery calls the style medium-dry, with about 21 grams per liter of residual sugar balanced by high acidity (pH 2.94). It's 12% alcohol.

The winery describes crisp apple and white peach with subtle mineral notes, and calls it incredibly refreshing and flavorful. One retailer sums it up as measured off-dry sweetness.

Against Chateau Ste. Michelle Harvest Select Riesling, this bottling is less sweet and a touch higher in alcohol; for a balanced, off-dry Riesling that works across a whole meal, choose this one.

The winery says it pairs with a wide range of foods. Serve it well chilled with spicy Thai or Sichuan dishes, pork, roast chicken or a cheese board.
