Aromas of petrol, linoleum, apricot, pear blossom. Clean flavors of apple dominate, with hints of stone fruit and a pleasing mineral component. A simple, easy-drinking riesling. The age has helped this one on the palate but the petrol note is a bit strong for such a relatively young wine.

Doesn't smell like a riesling, but definitely tastes like one. Tangy, maybe a bit hot. Another delicious riesling from Germany. Perhaps one of the best rounded rieslings I've had. Acidic, small tannins towards the end. A lingering finish.

Nose is reticent, but definitely get the rubber bands and a little floral. Starts with apricots, lime, rubberbands with a little acid and finishes with honey and the floral component. Not acidic enough. Enjoyable. Really nice packaging.

Sweeter riesling, but still had nice balance and depth.
