8/17/2014 - AWBryce Likes this wine: 95 pointsThe best Rielsing I have had to date, and in my top 3 whites. This was outstanding. I have not tasted a wine with such incredible balance. No element overshadowed any other, the delicate sweetness was held in check perfectly by the crisp acidity. Nose was gorgeous with petrol and tropical notes. |
