Straightforward, yummy riesling. Has nice fruit, good acidity and a floral nose. For me, this lacked the exoticism necessary to move this in the upper echelon of rieslings.
This was incredibly fruity with dense peach nectar...could easily have been drinking one of those overpriced fruit cocktails sold at Whole Foods. The acidity was medium on the finish which added to the sensation that you're drinking something far from the norm.
Good fruit and floral notes on the nose. The palate has great zesty citrus, crushed stones, herbs, and peach. The acidity and structure were in good shape too - very nice stuff.
A very elegant expression of riesling. Peach, tangerine, petrichor, white florals and minerals are woven together on the nose. It's aromas are cool, refreshing and lithe. The palate was great - had a silky palate with big tangerine and mango tones. Mixed with stone, subtle truffle and herbs this was showing very well. Good acidity too.
Wasn't showing all that much other than some tropical fruits and floral notes. The palate was a bit denser than I was expecting, but showed nice peach and mango tones. Acidity was medium - refreshing and well made.
I think this was my first wine from this producer. Seemed like good stuff. Good tropical fruit that seemed crystalline in its focus. Furthermore, the acidity and balance was impressive. Liked the floral lift the palate had too. Yum.
Had a slightly exotic nose of peaches, apricot, fresh grass and spices. The palate had nice balance, focused tropical fruit notes and good underlying acidity. This is a wine that I enjoyed a great deal, but didn't leave me saying wow.
Great balance and fruit. Nice notes of peach, nectarine, pear, crushed slate and herbs. The palate was beautiful with big peach, apple, mango, pear and tangerine tones. Despite the big flavors, the palate was nicely balanced with lots of acidity and lithe florals. Showed really well.
Really good stuff. Nice nose of mostly floral notes; just beautifully and seamlessly integrated with nice nectarine, mango and star fruit tones. Showing really well right now with bracing acidity and good depth to the fruit.

Decent juice, but lacked the punch or complexity to make it really memorable.

Wasn't overly impressed with this. Somewhat gloppy with soft edges and big fruit. With more acidity this would deliver more enjoyment.
