Excellent wine but way, way too early. Opened ~6 hours before drinking and it needed that time plus some before it started to show. Super acidic and closed immediately on popping the bottle, really started to open up to a beautiful, floral, red and purple fruit wine towards the end. Needs at least 6-12 hours if opened now, or let it sit for a bunch more years

Fantastic classical riesling - just a hint of petrol on the nose to start, quickly replaced by beautiful lemony, white floral aromas. Backed up by the palate with some additional green apple flavors, great acidity that keeps the sweet fruit in check. Fantastic - I wish I had more.
