Strong lemon-lime theme. Fairly single-note dominant.

I get graphite in the nose. All about lime in the taste.

Heard that a misfiled has this on their restaurant menu now, so brought this out of the cellar. No dosappoinent- the lean wine we purchased 6 years ago has aged fantastically. Dryness gone, this tasted sweetish to 2 of our panel, but had no flaws you'd get from lesser wines. Great drop- and drink now or 2017., no later.

A lively number that comes fresh to my nostrils like a crisp sea breeze, salty and tart.
You can almost smell that acidity!
And acidic it is! Mouthwatering in fact, even though there are still 9.5g of residual sugars. Reminds me of the old tradition of a spoonful of sugar with your super dry German Rieslings!
I've always said lowburn and Pisa are great for Riesling.
Key lime and lemon zest, and if you like them dry then this is for you.

Cheers!
