Really well made Riesling. Not the oily “you know it’s Riesling” type; 12%!alc., med+acid, apple, unripe pear, quince, tropical hint and roomy (Hannibal Lechter, sorry) Wow. Find more! Go Austria! — 3 months ago

Unscrew and pour. On the nose: soft spritz, heady mint and lime mixed with peach. This wine is not what I would call low ABV (14%), and that is perceptible on the nose. On the palate: lovely acidity and density, fantastic creamy mouthfeel, then more lime.and peach. Very fresh, but needs a lot of time, imo (maybe 3-5 years?). — 5 years ago

Gruner isn’t my jam, but this is pretty good. Nose has citrus pith, clean mountain stream, crushed rock, green apple. Dry and with the characteristic Gruner peppery note, it’s clean and crisp, with a bit of tingly bitterness that lingers. — 5 years ago

Light white straw with medium- viscosity, some solids at bottom of bottle. Nose sees lemon rind, lime. Palette sees white peaches, over ripe yellow apples, lots of lemon, lime, limestone minerality. Medium++ acid. Solid wine and great value for $19, but I prefer the cheaper non-reserve offering. Wished the aftertaste was cleaner and crisper on this. — 8 years ago

Excellent varietal typicity, could use a little more acid snap but that's just quibbling. — 10 years ago

Nice medium pink Rose of Pinot Noir from Austria! mellowed by a bit of age. Strawberry peach orange and mixed floral acidic notes with very lively stony firm texture and good bite carrying through to a stimulating long finish. ABV 12. Nice JR buy and apparently top seller last several years. Last bottle. Raised score by one from 2016 note. — 5 years ago

Unique. Alarmingly light and advanced color. Great nose. Extremely savory scents (teriyaki?) over stony mineralit’s and fresh fermented Pinot pomace. Nice acids accompany the bone dry, sappy, savory flavors. — 7 years ago
