I do love shet like this. Not ultimately petroly and suck-my-own-mouth, but delightful enough in the classic Mosel way.

Golden color but alive and fresh. Sharp and tart with crisp apple and pear. Beautiful from start to finish.

Crisp, bright, fruit-forward nose with notes of a sweet yellow peaches and a touch of citrus. Lush and sweet but wonderfully balanced on the palate. Sweet, juicy flavors of lemon citrus and peach lead to bright, pure acidity and crisp minerality. The finish is long a juicy with a drying finish and forever-lasting acidity. Wonderful with an incredibly long life ahead of it.

Great mature Riesling fruit with excellent acid, honeyed peach notes. Great vintage!
