  Acidity is not sufficient to balance the residual sugar, leaving an intensely concentrated wine that is simply too sweet

  Lots of Recent Tastings Notes, Valentines Day, etc - SQN, Maybach, Insignia, Delas, Clape, more; 1/31/2009-2/15/2009: Drank Valentines Day, paired with fried oysters and seared scallops. Excellent young Riesling from a producer that is new to me. Great acidity to balance the sweetness, which was a little more than I would have expected from a Spatlese, but welcome nonetheless. The nose was filled with green apple and pineapple. Quite intoxicating.

  Nice well balanced wine with a perfect amount of acidity. You can really taste the apricot and mandarin oranges. The wine has viscocity and almost a little sweetness. Very nice. I wish I had bought more of this.
