  Extremely light in the glass; very pale yellow, almost clear. Very nice nose. Tropical fruits, lemon, citrus, and perhaps even cream-coated banana. The mouthfeel lacks acidity at all stages, which is too bad. The fruit flavors are somewhat monolithic -- sweet lemons, a touch of pineapple, and some mild creaminess. The fruits may even tend toward the over-ripe and honeyed, at the finish. Some stoniness on the finish, too. Bright at first at the front of the tongue, but the spark fades as the wine sits in the glass. I like that this wine had a lot going on -- interesting for an inexpensive Riesling.
