This is a decent bottle with savory flavors and decent complexity but less aromatic than I would have hoped and only a medium length finish. I don’t really agree with the other review below in that the flavors are quite savory rather than honey/fruit dominated. Straw, petroleum and even asparagus dominate. The nose definitely has more honey though and maybe this will mature - it’s still pretty young.

A: Pale lemon N:Pronounced intensity. Honey, peach, apple, jasmine, kerosene. P: Dry high acid, medium alcohol, full body, long finish and medium (+) intensity. Acid in balance with the weigh t of the wines body and the fruit concentration. This is a typical example of the riesling grape from the Alsace region. The length and intensity are admirable while the wine lacks complexity where better examples might excel but shows some purity of fruit. It is very good quality wine and its acid and fruit concentration will allow this to improve on ageing. $30 (premium )
