There are some producers in Niagara that really know how to push the right Riesling buttons - who know how to walk that fine line between the racy and the sweet and bring it all together ... Vineland continues to show that it is a leader in this category. This St. Urban Riesling from the hopped up acidity of the 2009 vintage is just such a fabulous wine for Riesling lovers that you might just forget about the rest of the world for awhile while you sip on it ... and isn't that what a really good wine is suppose to do, transport us away - even if just for a little while. The nose is very lemony with loads of mineral notes, there's pear and apple fruit in here too but it takes a backseat to the lemony-mineral stars of the show. The palate has a whack of acidity, a touch of sweetness to balance it off along with lemon-lime in the middle leading to a great green apple pucker on the finish. This is Riesling done right. Price: $20.00 - Rating: **** 1/2+
