this is winemaker rich cushman's estate vineyard. at 25 years of age, it may well be the oldest riesling planting in the region. the alcohol is just under 11%, but there is plenty of acid under the fruit, so despite its off-dry designation, this is a wine that would work wonderfully well with a wide variety of cheeses and appetizers. flavors suggest pears and peaches, detailed with spice and stone.
