Nose has tangerine peel, tangerine slice, cold peach, petrol, lime peel, tart green apple peel and lime zest.

Palate has sliced lime, grapefruit peel, lemon zest, green apple Jolly Rancher candy, dry-crushed slate, under-ripe peach, medium acidity, medium finish. Future bottles should be 2025+

Slightly more weight to the palate than the 2015 vintage tasted alongside.

Everything you could want from an entry-level dry Riesling, with brilliant citrus and bright minerality, light and racy but not austere.

Light petrol on rocks, finish is a little short right now... Needs more air, and many years.

Petrol on limestone... Better as it warms.

Gift from our host, the winemaker, as we enjoy their guest farmhouse in the Finger Lakes for the next few days.

Perfect match tonight with red sauce chicken curry. Not as complex and minerally as the '09 Argetsinger or even the '10, but still a delightful treat.

I was peacefully doing crochet by the fireplace in my living room, when a wineburglar barged through my door and force fed me with this divine grape essence.

Emotions ensued.

Crisp w a touch of acidity and nice minerality. Great for a hot summer day!
