6th wine coming our way during the speed dating round at WBC 12 is the 2009 Amity Estate Dry Riesling. Amity is an Oregon vineyard, yay for representing at the speed dating. The wine retails for $20. Very lime-y on the nose with bright tart acidity shining through even on a sniff. Some tropical notes hiding under the initial lime, kumquat and star fruit notes coming through. On the palate it’s crisp with awesome acidity, more lime, and other tart citrus.
Pair with a raw bar.
