Nicely made Riesling. Aromas are citrus and floral - petrol more of a suggestion, than a feature. That's a positive by the way. Although characterized as Med. Dry by the vineyard - the flavor is not sweet. I'd call it balanced, finish is also on the subtle side. Paired well with summer squash with (mild) chicken sausage and a selection of herbs. No need to reserve this for Spicy Thai food which is not a dish that I choose when deciding to have a decent bottle of wine.

Classic Meursault butter, definitive oak character, fruit profile is lemon, age provides softness and improved mouthfeel. This is one of the beautiful faces of Chardonnay.

Proving that some 2005 are ready to drink, this wine has recaptured its youth with elegant red cherry fruit with tasteful cinnamon spice notes. Aroma and flavor are consistent. Finish is gentle and balanced. Mouthfeel is seductive.
