Despite the reserve and late harvest designations, this fits in more comfortably with a standard, off-dry Washington Riesling. The 4% residual sugar is muted by good acidity and firm pear and peach fruit. There’s some phenolic bite in the finish, and a hint of plastic. ——P.G.(10/1/2010)—— 85

There is not much botrytis character in 2004, but this is a solidly made late harvest wine whose 5.6% residual sugar is neither sugary nor jagged. Substantial and lined with citrus zest, the round, peachy fruit holds down the center and finishes with a smooth, not fat, lick of sweetness. ——P.G.(12/15/2005)—— 88
