The Chateau Chantal Semi Dry Riesling 2013 is a top notch Riesling from northern Michigan. The wine expresses notes of flint, slate, and steel, which are balanced with bright fruit characters. Granny Smith apple, lime, and grapefruit abound on the palate, and floral notes mingle enticingly. The winemaker has indicated that the floral notes will become more petrol with age. The acid structure is lively and makes this an excellent food wine. Consider pairing it with roast pork, chicken, and light seafood. It would also be a good match for spicy Asian dishes.
