Tangerine skins, fresh pears and a hint of petrol combine into an invigorating perfume on this fascinating Riesling. While initially soft with white peach and floral notes, the palate turns zippy and fresh with a slate- and chalk- laced minerality and a clean, lemony finish. ——A.I.(10/1/2011)—— 88

This beautiful Riesling from Chateau Lafayette Reneau opens with a delicate prickle of acidity that’s wonderfully enticing on the tongue. Lush with aromas of ripe yellow peaches and nectarines, it’s balanced artfully with a sharp, minerally edge and bright lemony acidity. Finishes quite dry. ——A.I.(10/1/2010)—— 89

Delicious aromas of peach, tropical fruit and spice lead this spirited wine from consistently good Chateau Lafayette, located on New York’s Seneca Lake. There’s a bright, zippy, and eaysgoing character of citrus and fruit on the palate that recommends this wine for food pairing and just sipping out on the deck. It’s not terribly complex but it doesn’t need to be—it’s delivering everything in an elegant, approachable package and at a good price.——S.K.(9/1/2007)—— 88
