"Flower Bomber" F-Bomb 2011 Riesling, Santa Barbara County 750ml
Dominant floral aromatics, with orange blossom taking the lead and a touch of wet stone. On the palate, the wine has sweet notes of peach and nectarine and a subtle layer of citrus peel. The wine has a nice acidity, and a creamy mouthfeel.

Once disdained as “Die Kaiserbluten” ("The Kaiser’s Blossom’s"), the aromatic old Riesling got a complete retooling in California, at the capable hands of a few petal-pushing yankee pioneers. When this old-world grape met with a little American – style razzle-dazzle, the result was one potent payload of flower power—the “F-Bomb.”
Not just another Weisser Heunisch in a pointy PickelHaube, the F-Bomb signaled that the Teutonic reign of terroir was about to go the way of the moustache spoon. Witnesses to its arrival at the front, awed at the American-made gullet-buster’s explosive floral armament of orange blossom, honeysuckle and zest, were at a total loss for words.
