STUART GEORGE EXTOLS PERSIMMON CREEK’S LATE HARVEST RIESLING
Stuart George, Tastings Editor of The World of Fine Wine, recently
wrote us saying: “Persimmon Creek’s Late Harvest Riesling is a distinctly
Georgian take on this noble variety. Luscious, but not overly sweet, its
clean aromas and light structure make the wine eminently drinkable,
either by itself as an apéritif, or as an accompaniment to a light dessert.”
