  Clear brass. Nose of slate and grapefruit. Notes from day 3, though day one was an excellent match with a spicy chicken stir fry. Tangy citrus with some peach, good acidity and a hint of bitterness. Fairly complex flavor profile, good finish. Really sings as a food wine with Chinese, Thai, and perhaps Indian food. On its own it lacks a bit of sweetness for my taste but is still good.

  Didnt take any notes at the time of drinking. But it tasted similar to drier rieslings from Austria with a bit more richness, and "figure to it" as someone else said!). Fresh, floral, and delicious on its own.

  Well-balanced, quite powerful Kerner wine, sourced from the steep slopes of the Eisack Valley (Eisacktal / South Tyrol). ‘Kerner’ is a German cross of Riesling and Vernatsch (Trollinger) that was created in 1929 by the grape breeder August Herold and named after the 19th-century poet and writer Justinus Kerner. Aged for five months on its fine lees, it shows a bright lemon-yellow color and a fragrant nose of white flowers, fresh peaches, nectarine and a touch of hay. On the palate: an elegant and rather complex wine, plenty of concentrated citrus and stone fruit, with a good mineral texture and a fine underlying acidity. Harmonious finish. The wine is already drinking very well now but with the potential to age for three-four years.
  
  Mooi uitgebalanceerde, vrij krachtige Kerner-wijn, afkomstig van de steile hellingen van het Eisackdal (Zuid-Tirol). 'Kerner' is een Duitse kruising van Riesling met Vernatsch (Trollinger) die in 1929 door de Duitse professor August Herold werd gecreëerd en genoemd werd naar de 19de-eeuwse dichter en schrijver Justinus Kerner. De wijn rijpte vijf maanden ‘sur lie’ en heeft een heldere, citroengele kleur en een aromatische neus van witte bloemen, verse perzik, nectarine en ook een vleugje hooi. In de mond: een elegante en vrij complexe wijn, vol geconcentreerd citrus- en steenfruit, met een goede minerale textuur en een fijne schragende aciditeit. Harmonieuze afdronk. De wijn is nu al best op dronk, en heeft een potentieel voor verdere drie-vier jaar.

  Quarantine Wines; 3/10/2020-5/11/2020 (At Home): First time on this, a buy from Envoyer. The note from Elychon nails it. V. Good wine. Its basically Alto Adige Riesling with some body.
