Late Harvest Riesling 2021

Thanks dear cousin from Traverse City for this wonderful gift! I enjoyed it with a variety of different foods. Sadly, I finished the bottle. I miss you, and the wine — 8 months ago

Leelanau Peninsula Dry Riesling 2021

Pineapple, pear, citrus, and stone fruits on the nose. And wow, it's good. More lovely pineapple, lemon, and pear on the palate. It's not as pronounced as the French Rieslings, but it's also a young wine and it may develop. However, as it sits it's quite lovely and very drinkable. I love the warmth and subtle sweetness, and it goes down so easily. — 4 years ago

Black Star Farms ‘Arcturos’ Dry Riesling 2019: Light acidity. Bright fruit. Clean & refreshing taste. Apple. Pear. Apricot. Citrus. Stone. Crisp, off-dry finish. All in all, a beautiful & surprising Riesling from the great state of Michigan. So surprised I had to bring back to my hotel room! Happy Sunday! Cheers🍷 — 4 years ago

Auxerrois Blanc 2017

Alsatian White varietal from Michigan. Loads of mouth watering acidity! Complex nose of orange, lemon and white flowers. Lemon-Lime flavors with a hint of fresh cut grass. Minerals and chalk on the finish! Totally interesting! Really delicious! Revisited in November 2022. Still fresh tasting. Reached its peak. — 5 years ago

I’m in Detroit today and I found this on the restaurant list. The restaurant was out of this world - Chartreuse.

Fishtown White Blend 1990

Our first wine from Good Harbor and a nice surprise. Tart up front and sweetness at the end - but neither too sweet or too tart. Nice balance. — 5 years ago

Pinot Blanc 2018

A really nice wine from Verterra, who in my opinion is one of the best producers in Michigan. This one seems to have a slight trace of residual sugar. Doesn’t work so well just below room temp, but cool it down and it really comes into balance. Had it with cream cheese-stuffed jalapeños with a sweet Thai chili sauce. Excellent. Highly recommend this winery. — 5 years ago
