The 2024 Riesling Poet's Leap is scented of peach, pineapple, lime peel, bread dough and floral perfume. The light-bodied palate is bursting with stone, tropical and citrus fruits. Bright acidity balances 9.5 grams of residual sugar, and it has a long, refreshing finish. It overdelivers for its modest price! 6,025 cases were made.

Inspired by German winemaker Armin Diel, the 2024 Riesling Poet's Leap is dry and mineral-driven, refreshingly thirst-quenching in apricot, melon, and light-bodied refinement, with a length of bright acidity. From the Gamache, Bacchus, and DuBrul vineyards, it is ready to drink now and over the next 6-8 years.

A combination of Asian pear and lemon grass tea makes for a nice introduction to the Poet's Leap, always one of Washington state's great values. Brilliant acidity then shines its light on the wine's green apple, lime zest and honeycomb flavors. The dry wine feels light and tangy on the palate. Again, good Riesling for a great price.
