Reading very youthful. Intense citrus and minerality. Just a hint of petrol. Long finish. Could take more time in the bottle.

Delicate, lively, expressive "dry style" with white peaches and white flowers lingering.

A great deal of salinity on the nose. Fruit in the finish (unripened strawberry, floral, and sharp provolone).

Not for me. Petrol on the nose. Soft round mouthfeel with a bit of fruit. Medium acidity. Not super crisp.

Honeysuckle, hay, slight petrol. Showing very well for a 2007.

Like - a bit like soapy peonies and pears in a good way. Not overly sweet maybe would like it with a bit more of a crisp at the finish

Intensely flavored with classic riesling notes. Ripe, juicy grapefruit holds the center, with lemon, apricot, some floral and then nice wet stone underneath it. Lovely Finger Lakes wine.
