Each year Chateau Ste. Michelle fashions a delicious and ageworthy Late Harvest White Riesling Reserve. The 1996 may not be very long-lived, yet it is forward and generous. Raspberry jam, flowers, and candied oranges are discernable in its expressive aromatics. Medium-bodied, rich, and broad, this well-balanced wine is crammed with red and yellow fruits as well as flavors reminiscent of fruit punch. It is thick and possesses a long, sweet (yet not cloying) finish. Projected maturity: now-2007. Fax: 425-488-4657
