Pale lemon with pronounced stone fruit and citrus aromas. On the palate flavors of apple and citrus with lively acidity, minerality and spice. Medium finish ending with fresh fruit and a touch of stony citrus mineral notes.

Energetic and crisp. Classic Alsatian fruit with a touch of honey.

Fresh grapey aromas with Bath Talc. Light to medium weight palate. Finishes bone dry (12.5% Alc) with mouth puckering acidity. Not dissimilar to a young Australian Riesling. Tough to drink after a 2015 Dr Loosen with residual sweetness (8.5% Alc). With time the acidity tamed. Long future ahead.

An unbelievably good value entry level riesling - Great, stony mineral touch with underripe apricot and some toasted nuttiness, interesting but restrained. In the mouth there is a great snap of salty minerality, a stony grip on the back end with snappy lemon & lime sherbet.

Always a treat, especially for the price. Petrol on the nose. Very lively on the palate. Never disappoints!

Not fantastic drinking as a quaffing wine at the bar but very nice accompaniment to chilli squid and goats cheese tart with balsamic sauce.

Pale lemon in color, almost see-through.

Strong nose with limes and diesel notes.

Medium bodied with medium plus acidity.

Very dry on the palate with mild complexity.

Showing lemons, green apples, spices, herbs and diesel.

Limes on the tangy finish.

Easy drinking and better with food.

13% alcohol by volume.

88 points.
