Lastly, the use of oak can have a major effect on the finished wine. Fermenting wines and aging them in oak is often encountered in Chardonnay production and the degree of new oak, which imparts the vanilla, smoke, hints of sweet spices such as clove and cinnamon, can be a major factor...

The Riesling’s very dry with a tinge of semi-sweet finish was spot on for this meal. Limes were plated to squeeze the juice over the top of the dish as well as ground peanuts and green onion slices. The 2019 Smith-Madrone Riesling was a godsend. The wine was refreshing and quenched...
