Winemaker's Notes
Robert Mondavi Private Selection 2003 Johannisberg Riesling has charming floral, fruit, spice and mineral notes that weave through the aromas and crisp, lightly sweet flavors.
I just opened a bottle of this the other day and although its a Mondavi its not worth it. Its not too sweet like you would expect from a reisling but there wasn't much of a body either. The wine isn't a 2003 its a 2000, that may be part of it, some whites are meant to be drunk young and this one is 5 years old. I doubt that will have much of a factor but I should probably try a newer one to make sure. Price wise, $9 isn't bad but I can think of a number of better selections for that price.
