91 Points | Wine Enthusiast – The wine is fleshy and mouth filling, ripe, medium bodied, big fruit and citrus flavors, finishing very long with wonderful brightness. Expansive and complex. Stunning.
92 Points | Vinous – Very aromatic, generous mouthfeel, with medium weight lifted by medium plus acidity. A wonderful long finish and mouth watering fruit that begs for more.
Classic Riesling aromas, in the mouth, the wine is rich and ripe offering velvety and mouth coating roundness. Beautiful and complex, with lively acidity that balances the rich fruit and wonderfully long finish.
Ara is the name of a constellation in the Southern Hemisphere (just south of Scorpius). As a wine, he Brooks Ara became a superstar the night that it was served at a White House State Dinner. We were thrilled because Ara is the wine that to us represents the perfect balance of power and elegance. Where better to drink it than the White House? (except maybe your house).
Exhibits incredible aromas of orange flower and citrus, followed by jasmine, honeysuckle, and even a touch of diesel. On the palate, expect a full-bodied experience (for a Riesling, at least) with ripe pear, lychee, passion fruit, and pineapple.
