Charles Smith Kung Fu Girl Riesling 2014

Trevor Sabourin rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

This off-dry riesling has excellent balance, and lots of ripe fruit, with a nice floral and mineral component. The aromas are of candied lime, tart red apple, peach/apricot, honey, elderflower, lilac, and crushed stone. Flavours show more of the same, with a touch of spice (nutmeg, white pepper). The acidity is high, and the body medium. The residual sugar adds some viscosity and texture to the palate, but the high acidity keeps the wine vibrant. The length is good, with lingering acids. Pair with spicy asian cuisine. Tasted Dec. 2016.

Jon Steeves rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

The 2014 vintage is clear, bright pale gold colour, medium alcohol 12?V, 100% riesling from Columbia Valley, Washington State, USA. The wine shows off-dry, medium body, crisp, tangy and mouthwatering with medium acidity. Elegant and vibrant aromatics of crisp Granny Smith Apple, Asian pear, nectarine and a hint of orange blossom. Flavour intensity medium on the palate, showing similar to nose with a prominent minerality of wet limestone and a secondary of lime zest. And white pepper. This wine shows beautifully and is great quality at an accessible mid-price point. Recommend pairing with spicy Szechuan, pad Thai or your favourite South Asian fare, such as vegan Indian.
