Tasted blind. Clear, day bright, medium straw with some green hues and rim variation. There is medium staining and medium legs. The nose is clean, medium (+) in intensity and youthful, with aromas of citrus, stone fruit, petrol and some sweet spice. The palate is off-dry, with apple, pear, lime, peach, apricot and some stony minerality on the finish. The alcohol is medium, the acidity is medium (+) - as is the body, length of the finish and the complexity. This is a very distinctive white and is likely to increase in complexity over the next several years.

The nose showed a light spritz of lemon and lime with moist minerals and hints of fresh cut grass. On the palate there was a striking cut of acidity, lending tremendous freshness and a mouthwatering quality, which nearly masked it's ripe fruit; yet the fruit was still there and quite enjoyable. Peach, cherry and citrus notes lingered on the palate with stony minerals as the mouth continued to water. It was fresh and fruity with great minerality, a great QPR--what more could I ask for?

Tastes of grapefruit and pear with nice acidity. Slightly over sweet for a Kabinett but not too over done.

Ripe, fruity, balanced off-dry riesling. Very decent quality, lacks a bit of personality.
