Boxler produced a tactile Brand Riesling in 2015 - chalky textured, with flavors of magnolia petal, orange blossom, rosewater, and candied ginger. Dynamite.

2012. Stinkiest of the flight, and a surprising amount of RS on the palate. Almost could mistake for German, but the essence of Alsace resides

Extraction, minerality, complexity. This wine is fantastic now and I imagine even better in 8-15 years time.
