Pale golden yellow, excellent clarity. Diesel and floral notes in nose with a hint of sulfite. Lemon, jasmine tea flavors with moderate skin astringency, minerality on finish. Later, unripe pineapple flavor emerges. Dry, austere fruit profile but definitely Riesling, a serious one for the fans of this variety.
