Nice gentle riesling in an easy-going, round style. Nicely mature, a hint of petrol, good persistance and a long-lasting finish. Good job!

Light, refreshing white wine. Notes of citrus in the middle. Good, normal finish. Leafy, green notes in the mouth.

Okay. A bit too sweet for me. Very aromatic with apple/pear, grape, and spice notes; full-bodied, sweetness a bit cloying despite fairly crisp acidity.

Bastille Days - Tours de France; 7/14/2023-7/16/2023: pale straw in the glass. a fresh citrusy note laces the peach and pear aromas that are enriched by floral accents and a whiff of beeswax. remarkably fresh in the mouth; the fruit, herbal and spice overtones, and moderate acidity are displayed with over a mineral backbone. good persistence with a subtle beeswax feel.

enjoyable by itself or good with food.

13% AbV; fermented and aged in stainless.

some Riesling appreciation - Austria, Alsace, and Germany: light straw colour and light body in the glass. amid subtle wafts of petrol, the nose is rich in tangerine and lemon and with some notes of honey dried white flowers. lightly viscous in the mouth, the initial dry and stony attack morphs into richer flavours of minty and honeyed red apple and mirabelle balanced by a sharp acidity. just as quickly, it morphs again into a more austere style that turns spicy in the not particularly long finish.

this is a wine i'd like to revisit. i do wonder if a tad more bottle age will firm up the palate.

13.5% AbV.

Riesling tasting (K&L Wine Merchant - San Francisco): Aromas of fresh, juicy and tart peaches, green apples and pears, dry hay, and a bit of damp and musty stones (in a good way). The fruit notes ripen with a bit of time.

On the palate is a hit of stony acidity, straw from the nose, similar but lighter fruits on the palate, and bitter minerals.

The aromas really grabs your attention but the on the palate makes this a bit disappointing. Refreshing and energizing upfront but then completely steps off a cliff on the mid to end palate. 89-90

simple flavors of green apple and lemon, flabby and inadequate acidity despite the impressions of tart fruit. hollow midpalate and just a tart and mineral finish. not worth the time to drink

Textbook Riesling in a nice place. Complex notes, only hints of petrol, mostly stone fruit. Ditto full taste with lots of oomph and enough balancing acidity, long finish. Dry, complex, well-balanced and satisfying. Good stuff !

medium sweet/demi-sec… and ripe! 14% AbV, and (guessing) 35-45 g/L RS. so a bit of an acquired tasted.

dark yellow with noticeable body in the glass. the varietal-expected rosewater and lychee fruit aromas abound and are laced with those of flowers, ripe pears and apples. in the mouth it is viscous, concentrated, rich and smooth; the sweetness in check by adequate acidity and a liquorice and bitter twist thru the long finish.

it was absolutely delightful with very spicy Thai food…

…and on its own, slowly.

Brief note from memory since I drank this bottle a while ago and forgot to log notes. Citrus, petrol, apple, unripe pear, melon. Good wine, will let second bottle get some age on it. Probably open in 5 years and see how it has developed

Very sweet but very tasty. It would be an upgrade over a mango lassi (about the same sugar level) with Indian food.

Interesting wine, first Pinot blanc and it has some age, so I’m not sure if some typical of this varietal. Overall enjoyed this wine. Upfront nose and palate are striking with punch of raw almond, pear, and yellow apple. Getting some dates and citrus on the finish with some green tea. I liked the mix of fresher fruit flavors with some of the more savory notes. Mild acid, no tannin, medium-light body with medium length. Would like to explore this varietal more in the future. Nice fall/winter white wine.

Gold fig, orange, hint of VA on the nose. Stewed apple, very little upfront acidity, and a heap of VA.

Medium bodied, traditional style with modern elements. Soft but complex nose with tree fruit, honeysuckle, hay. Palate for the first hour is basically smarties candy or unmixed powdered drink but less sweet - it's like drinking chalky, grainy liquid.

After a few hours it turns more toward normal Alsace Riesling - honey, dried grass, lemon zest. Best to decant for a couple hours, but it's likely nearing the downward decent already so drink up.

This is a decent bottle with savory flavors and decent complexity but less aromatic than I would have hoped and only a medium length finish. I don’t really agree with the other review below in that the flavors are quite savory rather than honey/fruit dominated. Straw, petroleum and even asparagus dominate. The nose definitely has more honey though and maybe this will mature - it’s still pretty young.
