Michaud Columbia Valley Riesling 2019
About the wine
Zippy, zesty dry Riesling from the hills of Washington
Light, fruity and as crisp as a chomp of green apple – this Riesling is the perfect thirst-quencher.
Your support allowed Justin and Katy to harvest grapes from two different Columbia Valley regions in order to capture vibrant, complex flavors. “Scrumptious. Refreshing. Semi-sweet with a mild citrus finish. This is what an off-dry Washington Riesling is all about!” Justin says.
Your refreshing Riesling makes the perfect match spicy noodles and sauces. Katy insists – "It goes great with a spicy curry!"
Best before
Riesling wines actually age very well. I would say buy a case and enjoy at your leisure. If you like to age wine you could easily enjoy for this up to 5 years. The stainless steel style is made to enjoy right away so once it is filtered and in bottle it is ready to enjoy.
Serving advice
Temperature seems to influence this wine quite a bit. If you like sweeter tasting then let if warm up a little. The aromas get stronger and the acidity seems to soften. If you want it to taste crisp serve it chilled. The acid will be more pronounced at a colder temperature.
Food match
I continue to love this wine with spicy Asian foods. A nice curry dish is perfect. It also goes well with some cheese and crackers, and if you like oysters its a nice way to wash them down.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Justin & Katy Michaud
Katy and Justin Michaud are two of Washington's most talented young winemakers – the folks behind award-winning wines at Canoe Ridge, Kim Crawford, Covey Run and Coyote Canyon.
They’ve had huge success individually - and thanks to Angels, this husband-wife duo are creating their own wines together (for the first time ever!) They’re psyched to join forces and introduce more spectacular cool-climate wines to Angels across the US.
Washington produces vibrant, fruit-driven wines that you just can't capture in California – the moment we tasted Katy and Justin's wines we knew we were onto something that would give Napa a run for its money!
