2005 Chateau Ste. Michelle Late Harvest White Riesling Ethos Reserve Columbia Valley (half bottle)
Producer: Chateau Ste. Michelle
Style: White Wine
Grape Type: Riesling
Origin: Washington
Region: Columbia Valley
91 Points | International Wine Cellar , November/December 2007
($39; for 375 ml.) Bright, pale gold with a green tinge. Slightly high-toned, musky aromas of honeycomb, caraway seed and mace. Fat, thick and very sweet, but with good acidity framing the very rich flavors of ripe peach, caraway seed and honey. In an ideal world, this would have more complexity and acidity, but this sweet bomb is dense and delicious.
