One absolutely fantastic domestic Riesling. This is the only one that comes close to German styled Riesling for me. It has that slate/rubber, and lemon zest nose I adore in a Kabinett Riesling from Mosel. Apricot, keylime, crushed rock, edible flowers, and a touch of white pepper. Touch of sugar, beautiful acidity, and light - medium mouth feel.

Pale yellow. Richer on the nose with white stone fruits, a touch tropical and white flowers. Moderate acidity (5/10) but seems masked by residual sugars. Balanced and easy to drink with lots of fruits. Medium bodied and medium finish. Drink till 2019.

They may be known for Pinot, but this was the hidden gem! German Mosel nose - wet slate, lemon zest, and rubber. The pallet was very balanced - sweet white peach, keylime, mineral, and Kabinett like residual sugar to the finish. I could drink this often.

Very pretty, some petrol to accent the stone fruit and mineral notes.
