This bottle didn't sing like previously. Acidity not as lively. Perhaps it is tired. Still it was wonderful to my palate. Sadly I have only one bottle left of an original case or more. That being said, I'm tempted to open it before long and try again. Paired again with one the Indian dishes that I've been trying.

The wine was gold in color. The nose was honeysuckle, peach, apricot, honey, minerals. Actually, the nose was pretty nice, very expressive. The was even some botrytis and a bit of diesel. The palate was very disappointing. It seemed to be disjointed. The mineral was there and it had nice acidity, but the sweetness was heavy and out of balance. I looked for some length, but that really didn't exist. I wanted more, however, overall I was just disappointed.

Not much cut to this one with still a lot of baby-fat sweetnes. Some appealing flavors teetering between pear and pineapple. Not really a contemplative riesling.
