Guts-Riesling Trocken 2020
Very light and crisp - so very easy to drink. Citrus and apricot and a bit of the woodiness associated with Riesling. No sweetness, which is how a dry Riesling should be. Great paired with a spicy Penang curry. — 12 days ago

Hochheimer Kabinett Riesling 2020
Star bright pale yellow. Inviting nose of yellow apple and honeysuckle. Juicy bright acidity leads the medium-bodied palate which confirms the nose adding dry-ish honey and cement block. Finish is moderate in length and maintains the juicy acidity. At least I think it’s moderate because it’s such a tasty treat with just enough sweet balanced by just enough tart that I can’t help but swig one sip after another pausing only for my crab cakes and mixed root vegetables (beets and carrots mostly). For me, the Rhein and Nahe are preferable to the Mosel as the former are more food friendly at all Prädikat levels. This is no exception. Pair with just about anything. And try not to swig. — a month ago

Love this crisp bouquet, a cold night, still. The stars pristine sharp dots draping the sky. Mineral driven. Apples.
Bracing. Sharp. Energetic acidity with legs, carrying a savory quality through the mid.
Zip and chew. Something to sip and think. — 6 days ago
