70 Points

Wednesday, January 23, 2008 - Barmes-Buecher in Princeton (The Princeton Corkscrew Wine Shop, Palmer Square): COLOR: Light, watery, not brilliant. NOSE: Very reticent, even after warming in hands. Only the faintest hint of fruit. No lemon characteristic. Dull yeast. Maybe, just maybe, there was a hint of canteloupe rind. PALATE: Watery mouthfeel, thin flavor - poor concentration, hollow on the midpalate, some bitterness, acidity was not balanced by fruit or residual sugar - there was very little residual sugar, so it was fairly dry- much drier than the 06 Riesling Tradition. I didn't see the "minerality" but it could have been there. $24. Pass
