Review: Claymore – Joshua Tree Riesling (2014)

Joshua Tree Riesling from Claymore

The Wine Review:

You know someone makes the effort when the vintage is spelled out as “Two Thousand and Fourteen” rather than “2014”
I’m not one for Rieslings but lately have been giving them a go (also peer pressure’s a factor since I’m surrounded by Riesling lovers)

A: I get the kerosene vibe off of this
T: Reminds me of lemon peel with a nice acidity

Today was a scorcher and this was great with cold Vietnamese rice paper rolls

*On special at Dan Murphy’s $15 down from $20 this month
