Built for the long haul - hard to separate ripeness from say 6-9 g/L of RS. Rich aromas of golden apple, artichoke Liquer, and wet stone.

Fruit is nice and peachy but there’s a cardboard exterior that I’m not crazy about. I’m no Riesling expert so maybe that’s supposed to be there.

Awesome Austrian Riesling! Lemon pith, Asian brown pear, river rocks, honey, brown sugar, and Chrysanthemum tea. Good balance of fruit and minerality. Complex with a nice long finish.

Somewhat reticent nose on opening, but lush citrus, mineral, and a tropical note on the palate with a finish that keeps rolling on.
