From the bottle:
“The Cono Sur vineyard workers travel around our estate by bicycle, tending the vines using natural methods, in order to produce the best quality grapes. Our Bicicleta wines are a tribute to them.
Winemaker’s Notes: An intensely aromatic wine with citrus fruit and soft white flower aromas together with a palate of grapefruit and mineral flavors.
Food Pairing: This is the perfect wine to serve with seafood and white meat dishes, particularly with Thai influences.
13.5% Alcohol”
The 2012 Cono Sur Bicicleta Riesling begins with pleasant floral, grapefruit and other citrus aromas. Tasting the wine reveals flavors of lemon/lime soda, fresh citrus with good acidity and a lively texture with some nice mineral notes. This is a semi-dry, not super sweet, Riesling which is a bit unusual for the price. It’s not a blow your socks off kind of wine, but for 6 bucks this is one nice, easy to drink bottle. It ends with a tangy finish.
