Portland has been coming out with some phenomenal Riesling to complement the Chardonnays and Pinots. I can’t wait for this festival and am very grateful for learning about it. Thanks for posting this.
Thanks for the good words, Jared. Riesling Invasion also features wines from beyond Portland and Oregon as well, including Washington State and Germany. Riesling, more than any other wine expresses the terroir from which it comes, so it’s always a great opportunity to compare locally produced Rieslings with their counterparts from other regions around the world.
