The palate is just a hair off-dry, balanced by electric acidity. It's a textbook picture of Washington Riesling at its best. Editors' Choice\u003cbr\u003e93 Points\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVinous, Owen Bargreen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTruly one of the great wines of its kind made in Washington. Given 1.1% g\/L, it shows petrol and wet stones mingle with Japanese pear and gooseberry tones on the nose. The palate is fresh and beautifully textured with outstanding length. Orange blossom water, Sprite and sweetened cantaloupe flavors alongside crushed wet rock tones all impress on the nose. The verve, weight and length of the wine is really outstanding.\u003cbr\u003e92 Points\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJames Suckling\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAromas of honeysuckle, peach and dried herbs. Full-bodied with bright acidity and honeyed notes of apricot and lavender. Good intensity.\u003cbr\u003e92 Points\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInternational Wine Report\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFermented and aged completely in stainless steel tanks, the Rieslings from Long Shadows have always been a favorite of mine. I love the ageability of these wines. I have opened some from 10-15 years ago and they have aged perfectly. It does have a touch of residual sugar and sweetness on the palate. Lemon-lime, honey, and white flower blossoms form the core of this wine. Mouthwatering acidity and a medium body complete the wine. Drink this with some spicy Thai food and then thank me later. Best Buy.\u003cbr\u003e90 Points\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJeb Dunnuck\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJuicy green apple, lychee, and tart pineapple notes all emerge from the 2020 Riesling Poet's Leap, a medium-bodied, lively, balanced, impressively textured off-dry Riesling that can be drunk any time over the coming decade or more. It's surprising how well this wine can age, and it's certainly up with the top examples of the variety in Washington State.","brand":"Long Shadows","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42975780962528,"sku":"105603","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/long-shadows-poet-s-leap-riesling_1.jpg?v=1664305298","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/long-shadows-poets-leap-riesling-2019-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
