2005 Poet's Leap 94 points


Riesling, Columbia Valley (WA), $20


The first wine to be released under the Long Shadows portfolio, and this 2005 is one of its best yet...wow!. Old-vine Riesling from Dionysus and Weinbau form the core of the wine, which is super clean, rich and generous. The fruits burst out like a county fair in summer—melon, stone fruits, citrus, honey—and the mix of residual sugar and racy acids is thrillingly on target.
