Passed me by. Drank it over a few days. Tired it cooler and warmer but to my palate this bottle was feeling a few years past it's prime. Still very nice but none of that energy and pizzazz a good Riesling has, whether it's old or young. Might try the next bottle in about 5 years.

Medium intensity, with aromas of nectarine, peach, and lemon. High acidity, medium bodied, with additional flavors of steel, pear, petrol, and wet wool. A medium finish.

Not much flavour, quite minerals with a nice acidity to it, still very young, very crisp with a clean finish. Good value for money here.

Usually love Riesling, , but not enjoying this one. Probably just expectations.... not as sweet as normal.
