  April 22, 2016 - The pear was really prounounced on this bottle with an almost cordial-like concentration followed by heaps of elderflower and lime. There is a real earthiness to this Riesling that takes you from great heights of fruit to something deep and profound. Unfortunately the acidity has become a bit reticent to balance this earthiness, which for me is a shame as it would add an extra dimension of freshness.

  July 18, 2015 - Delicious dry-style Riesling with a real green apple and lime zest quality. Hints of elderflower, pear, and a sharp mineral edge. Still very young, will improve. An ideal aperitif or match with crab.

  March 28, 2015 - Made from a blend of Leitz 3 top vineyards. Intense aromas of honey and tropical fruit. Lively acidity, pure clean fruit, minerality, great concentration and a lovely balanced finish. Could really become sensational for a wine priced about 20 USD! Strongly recommended.
