Star bright straw gold in the glass. Nose of yellow Apple and cement block. Medium body palate, medium acidity. Yellow apple, flint, quince on the palate. Good balance between "food wine" and "sipping wine," though there are certainly better examples of the grape from the region. Solid QPR.

A very good Riesling for the price ($13). Lots of lemony fruit aromas, accented by floral and mineral notes. Off dry, with med+ acidity, good balance. Generous fruit, leading with citrus, but also green apple, asian pear. A touch of green herb (lemon thyme?) and wet slate carry through on a very long finish. A hell of a value.

Consistently pleasing, with soft petrol, green apple, and a hint of sourdough.

Nice light golden hue color. Aromas of yellow apples, orange blossoms and flint. Damn good sipping wine, makes everyone Kung-fu fighting.

Crisp, light, relatively simple, very serviceable but not overly interesting.

Edge that I don't care for. Possibly metallic or acidic?
