2008 Kung Fu Girl Riesling (Charles Smith)


I picked this up for about $11 (I've seen it in California for cheaper). Charles Smith is the winemaker behind K Vintners, and he has a whole bunch of labels that are kind of goofy like this one. The label is a cool piece of design...Anyways, this wine is tasty and refreshing. It thought it was completely dry at 12.5%, but it isn't(it has 1.5% residual sugar), with a nose of peaches, limes, and apricots. Once it's in your mouth, it's got nice structure, and a zingy acidity. I enjoyed it quite a bit. B+/A-
