Appellation: Willamette Valley

Hand-harvested family fruit gave winemaker Adam Godlee Campbell the tools to produce a particularly expressive Riesling. Fresh apple, date, fig and casaba melon aromas are met by a tart entry of apples and yellow grapefruit, lime and tangelos. There's a bit of sweetness (less than 1 percent residual sugar), and a nice edge of acidity, then a remarkable sense of umami in the finish. Rated "Outstanding" by Wine Press Northwest magazine.

Price: $19.

Cases produced: 1,040. Elk Coke has excellent distribution, so this should be easy to track down at wine merchants with good Oregon selections.

Food matches: Enjoy this crisp, complex white with pasta in a white sauce or any number of Asian- or Central American-style dishes.
