Light straw in color.

Tropical fruits on the nose with lemons, grapefruits and mangos.

Medium-bodied with high acidity.

Medium sweet On the palate, pineapple, lemon, slate and minerals.

Long finish, but not fully balanced.

Needs another five years in the bottle.

8.5% alcohol by volume.

This was a real sleeper: don’t remember how this got into my cellar, but it was absolutely stunning: deep dark golden colored w/giant blast of petrol which blew off revealing crazy orange marmalade, rich ripe apricot, peach, kiwi & guava, honey and butterscotch… couldn’t take our noses out of the glass. Silky smooth fattened up body w/typical Mosel rounded-off edges. Sluggish acidity but super flavorful on palate w/gorgeous finish - tiniest bit of RS.

Touch of mineral over a bouquet of fruit, lemon, apple, peach, and kiwi. Good acidity for food but light enough to drink on a warm day.

Lovely straightforward Riesling, not complex but clean and bright. Somewhat sweet, it went well with Indian food.
