Riesling Carmel Road 2009

Welcome to Corney & Barrow Login

Rare in Monterey is Carmel Road's classic, refreshing Riesling with superb focus and poise

The stony minerality and beautiful ripeness of fruit achieved by Carmel Road is attributed in part to the unique granite and pebbly subsoil of the vineyards. Classic notes of kerosene entwine with pretty honeysuckle and white blossom aromas, delivering a wine of luscious acidity and inspired focus

"Lime, lemongrass plus some unexpected honey on the palate. Dry finish, but then lots of opulent stone fruit which undermines the Riesling-ness." 16/20
