Appearance- Medium gold with watery legs. Nose- Medium (+) intensity. Lemon, lime, acacia, quince, ginger, and 7-Up/Sprite. Developing. Palate- Dry, Medium (+) Acidity, medium alcohol, medium body, medium flavor intensity and medium finish. Lemon, lime, grapefruit, quince and flint. Quality- very good, drink now but has potential for aging. I honestly loved the aromas of this wine and had to add the 7-Up/Sprite note, it was patently obvious. If the flavors had carried through to the palate with the same intensity this would have been a truly amazing wine. Unfortunately, it lacked the depth and power. It has aging capacity due to the acidity and will hopefully evolve with some tertiary flavors in the next 5-10 years.

Very pale yellow, probably the lightest colored wine I have ever seen. The nose has pineapple, quince, peach and nectarines. On the palate it is enticing- mainly peaches to begin with. There’s a petroleum note that typifies the varietal alongside some yellow apples. Super tasty mind you, with some focused acidity to keep things sharp. The midpalate has some enjoyable flab, a weightiness that fills the mouth and adds to the body. The finish gets all serious with some flinty minerality, a resurgence of the apple theme as well as the nectarines and is medium in length and smooth. Overall this is a terrific wine that gets 92 points from me. Drink till 2025. $45 is rather steep, but this one’s a keeper that gets 4 stars.

Medium golden, virbrantn and crystal clear. Medium aromas of toast, apple and gingerbread spices. Exquisitely balanced riesling, apple, tropical fruit, minerality, sweet spice and some saltine notes. Refined texture, purity and refined acidity frame the medium(+) body, providing gravitas and staying power in the finish. Excellent, elegant, deliciousness in glass.
