Pure pineapple on this Riesling. The sulfur compounds seem to show up on the nose too. Pink grapefruit notes on the palate with a chalky tone to the finish.

Intense lime, petrol notes medium body and alcohol. Zesty, zingy but lacks the pretty fruit that is so enthraling with Riesling.

Pleasant muted lime perfume with similarly background octanes. The limes and kerosine are definitely kept closed by over chilling. Mouthfeel is weighty, slightly oily to cordial-like and coating. Despite this there is a nervy and mineral finish to consider.

A dry Riesling with LOTS of acid. Started drinking too cold. None of the minerals or fruit started to integrate until it was closer to 65 degrees. I would happily drink it again. Good by itself. Better with food.
