Leon Manbach
Frankstein Grand Cru Riesling
Dry, full bodied, rich for Riesling. Still med+ to high acid, but relative to other Riesling. Ripe peach, yellow apple, wet stone, and lemon zest.

Jan 3rd, 2016Aromas of pineapple, rose petal, ginger, and peach give way to a round mid palate supported by lively acidity. Lithe and mineral, this dry white packs tons of fruits - pineapple, pear, granny smith apple with a hint of briny note. The finish is long, oilly, and honeyed.

Dec 13th, 2015Very austere on opening. Took two days in the fridge to open up. Nose heavy and thick - candy apple, ginger honey, petrol
Classic Alsatian Riesling. Orchard and stone fruit. Thick mine rally, petrol. Absolutely delicious
