Pre-gernot. Approachable but unimaginative.

Nicely balanced, easy drinking, not oversweeet, minerals and fruit on the nose (no detectable petrol, alas), a fine food wine to pair with Asian and spicy dishes. Enjoyed the 2022 vintage with Dreama at Night + Market Sahm in Venice, CA. We will be in Venice, Italy in mere days!

Wine Club gathering with 1 white and 3 reds, all tasted blind.

This Riesling was a very delicate expression; so delicate that everyone opted for Sauvignon Blanc. It was delicious, simple, yet quite enjoyable.
