I do not have very much experience with Kerner but this was amazing! It had a nose that reminded me of an old world Viogner or even a Albarino... Very floral, honeysuckle and peach, but also an amazing mineral edge that kept it balanced. On the palate it was M+ Body with M+ acidity to match. This was a great wine, was complex and balanced... My favorite white wine of the night, and probably my favorite discovery!

Aromas of apple, flowers, and wet rock. Can taste all of the above, plus some tropical fruit (pineapple) as well. Mouth-watering acidity carries the flvors though the long finish.

PnP out of cold storage. A bit dulled at first the wine warmed to give off apple, lemon and wet rock aromas. Flavors matching aromas with tart acidity and a touch of residual sugar. Drinking before and with stir-fry of shrimp, mushrooms and vegetables with pasta and a spicy, coconut-ginger sauce. Good.

From a crudo/wine pairing tasting at Bar Mezzana (Boston). This was paired with two crudos - Maine Shrimp with bergamot & perilla and Kanpachi with tangerine & nori. The crudo was delicious but I severely disliked this wine, just found the taste really off putting. This is my first experience with a Kerner, but I found it almost soapy tasting. Kind of heavy with a mouth coating and lingering soapy/waxy taste. Nothing bright or light and lively about this at all. Not sure if this was the varietal or the wine but think I will actively avoid this in the future.

Solid versatile sipper, some green apples and lemony-citrus, a light floral component and balanced minerality, paired nicely across post-holiday apps.

Stone fruit, minerality, good long high acidity finish with nice complexity. Yum.

First time trying Kerner. Very nice and fresh. On the white fruits side with subtle floral and mineral notes.

Crisp, surprisingly refreshing. Bottle went quickly and didn't have time to formalize a detailed TN.

Decent acid and some fruit but a mediocre effort. Poor QPR.
