2006 Clos du Bois Riesling

A friend brought over a bottle of Riesling during a recent get together, and one night when I was in the mood for white wine, we opened it up.  Normally Rieslings are very sweet, almost dessert-like, so that was what I expected.  I have to say I was pleasantly surprised to find that while the wine was sweet - it wasn’t over the top but instead was refreshing and I really enjoyed the light fruitiness of the wine.  Another great summer white wine to enjoy while sitting on the deck.  The reviews suggest it would be a great accompaniment to spicy food, and I think that would be a good pairing.
