Pale white with a pale golden refraction. Floral, perfumed notes in nose. Litchi with slight grapefruit flavor, moderate skin astringency with mild seed tannin bitterness. Good body, acidity, rounded mouthfeel. Chrysanthemum with some green tea aftertaste. Lovely stuff, reminds me of the subtle flavor profiles I experienced living in Guangdong Province (Cantonese cuisine)

Jan 22nd, 2020Pale yellow white, excellent clarity. Chrysanthemum and non-diesel-like Riesling notes in nose. Litchi, lemon and lime flavors. Light to moderate skin astringency in finish, slight seed bitterness. Lemon lime aftertaste that evolves after an hour into a spicy malic aftertaste. Rounded mouthfeel, good acidity, crisp and refreshing. This would be a fun Riesling to taste blind versus a citrusy Gruner Veltliner, similar yet this being distinctly a Riesling in character. Almost worth decanting but just spend a couple of hours nursing this one until the bottle is drained. Don’t overchill
