Tasting Notes
Intensely aromatic, this wine shows typical ripe Riesling characteristics, including honey, apricot, and white flowers. Refreshing when ice cold, it opens up as it sits in the glass – tangerine, jasmine, and coriander seed appear in the nose, as the palate turns to tropical flavors evocative of guava and pineapple. Mild sweetness is balanced by a bright core of tangy citrus for a mouth-watering finish. The result is elegant and complex. Wine like you.
Pairings
Pairs perfectly with a spicy seafood pasta, seasoned chicken dishes or your favorite charcuterie board. This wine is best enjoyed chilled.
Black Girl Magic Riesling California Description
McBride Sisters Collection
Vintners & Sisters
Break the rules. Drink the wine.
Our story is proof that a bond can form over a bottle of wine;
a truth that comes to life with every McBride Sisters wine.
Raised among the vines of Monterey, California and Marlborough, New Zealand, one could say that the McBride Sisters’ path to winemaking was destiny at work.
Newly found sisters who had been raised across the world from one another, Robin and Andréa’s love affair with wine was planted within them from an early age while growing up in two of the world’s most iconic wine-growing regions.
In 2005, the sisters found themselves together in California, fueled by a shared passion for all things wine, wine-making and a desire to shake up the industry with a blend of old-world elegance and new-world finesse. It was then that the McBride Sisters Collection was born.
As the work began, so did their reality as two fierce, female and forward-thinking leaders in an industry historically defined by tradition and gender. But, like countless groundbreaking women before them, Andréa and Robin saw every obstacle as an opportunity to chart their own path rather than follow the standard formula.
Over time, McBride Sisters has grown into what is not only the largest Black-owned wine company in the United States, but one of the most inclusive, accessible, socially aware and sustainable.
These values show up not only in the wines they make but in all facets of their company. Their signature McBride Sisters Collection wines are direct reflections of the terroirs of their youth, with flavors designed for all palates. The fun, fab and eco-friendly SHE CAN collection and it’s related SHE CAN Professional Development Fund, are inspired by the endless pursuit of all women who are making their dreams a reality and breaking barriers daily. And the Black Girl Magic collection, Robin and Andrea’s personal ode to their culture and story, is inspired by the magic and resilience of Black women, to be enjoyed by all.
Since 2005, The McBride Sisters’ mission has become clear - to transform the industry, lead by example, and cultivate community, one delicious glass of wine, at a time.

Reviews for "Black Girl Magic Riesling: A Taste of Boldness and Sophistication"
1. - John - 2/5 stars - The Black girl magic riesling was not my cup of tea. I found it to be too sweet for my liking. The flavors were overpowering and it left a sticky residue on my palate. I prefer a more balanced and crisp riesling.
2. - Sarah - 1/5 stars - I was really disappointed with the Black girl magic riesling. It lacked depth and complexity, and tasted more like cheap fruit juice than a quality wine. The sweetness was overwhelming, making it difficult to enjoy. I would not purchase this wine again.
3. - Michael - 3/5 stars - I had high hopes for the Black girl magic riesling, but it fell short of my expectations. While it had some nice fruity notes, the overall taste was too syrupy and sweet. It lacked the crispness and acidity that I look for in a riesling. It might appeal to those who enjoy very sweet wines, but it wasn't for me.
