Skinny Dippin’ – NV; Fiesta Vineyard and Winery; Lometa, Texas

This clean sweet white wine is quite interesting. It is crisp and refreshing, which is welcomed on a sizzling summer day. The wine is a Riesling however; this one definitely
has a strong apple note and bouquet. There is just a tad bit of effervescence noticeable when held up to the light, but you will also notice the deep golden color as well. Definitely serve this one chilled to enjoy its character. Don’t be surprised if you initially think this is an apple cider wine, as there is a very distinct apple flavor, however, when you pair this with food, like a delicate vegetable based soup, you will find a decidedly different flavor profile. Experiment, taste, try, and enjoy. We think this is a great wine for this time of year.
