Shop Review: The 2010 FlipFlop Riesling has aromas of honey dew melon, apple, and apricot. When tasting these same flavors come through as well as some cantaloupe, pear, and a touch of pineapple. This is a very sweet wine which would make it a great match for spicy food or you could almost drink it as a dessert wine. The FlipFlop Riesling is medium-bodied with a full mouthfeel. It could use a little higher acidity to cut through the sweetness, but if you like sweet wines you'll likely enjoy this one quite a bit. Otherwise, pair it with spicy food and it'll be great. A surprisingly good Riesling for the price.
My Review: The nose was quite sweet with hints of many different light fruits. Maybe I do not like Reisling or maybe this particular type of Reisling was a bad representation but, this was the worst wine I have ever ingested and would not recommend to anyone.
