Peter Lehmann 2008 Eden Valley Riesling
Australian winemaker Peter Lehmann is well-known not only for his sustainable and delicious wines, but also for the unique artwork on his bottle labels, which often feature women. This vintage wine ($14.95) makes a great dessert accompaniment not only for its citrus undertones, but its pretty label featuring the Queen of Clubs.
