89 points - “Best Buy” - Wine & Spirits - April 01, 2010 2008 Grand Estates Riesling Columbia Valley

A lot of wine for $11, this generous riesling leads with hints of fusel and pear. It feels ample and well built, with sweet, broad apple flavors to match twice-cooked pork.

88 points - Wine Spectator - February 28, 2010 2008 Grand Estates Riesling Columbia Valley

Ripe and lively on a light frame, offering plenty of apricot and pear flavors against a nice line of acidity, which keeps this refreshing through the generous finish.

88 points - “Best Buy” - Wine Enthusiast - December 31, 2009 2008 Grand Estates Riesling Columbia Valley

Intensely aromatic, with a sharp, spicy entry, this off-dry Riesling could stand as a Washington classic, with apples and pears in abundance. There is a honeyed sweetness somewhat offset by juicy acids, and with its evocative spicy core it is distinctive in an ever-expanding lineup of Rieslings from Ste. Michelle Wine Estates.

86 points - Wine Spectator - March 31, 2009 2007 Grand Estates Riesling Columbia Valley

Lightly sweet, with a resiny edge to the pear and green apple flavors lingering on the lively finish.

“Recommended” - Wine Press Northwest - July 01, 2008 2006 Grand Estates Riesling Columbia Valley

Winemaker Ray Einberger brought the grapes for this wine in early, just after Labor Day, then crafted a wine loaded with aromas and flavors of apples.
