Riesling 2006 - Charles B. Mitchell Vineyards

$16.95 per bottle

This aristocratic wine suggests ginger and flower on the nose. The finish is reminiscent of quince, honey and mango. Produced by one of California's finest vineyards, this gold medal winning Riesling is simply superb.

Charles Mitchell Vineyards and Winery are located in the heart of the Sierra Foothills, in a premier Amador County wine region called Fair Play, named for the local township born in the Gold Rush era. Over 150 years ago, this region was a thriving wine producing area, supplying the Italian segment of the '49er population. Their property has had a fantastic history since that time, first as a promising repository for gold then, by the turn of the century, as a homestead and orchard, allowing generations of families the opportunity to live off this abundant land.

Their mission is to produce the highest quality wines from the Sierra Foothills and Fair Play appellation. They want to produce wines for the enjoyment of everyday drinking and special occasions. The winery also provides an enjoyable lifestyle and fun atmosphere for all employees and visitors.
