Bright, plesant nose mostly apple/pineapple/vanilla, very good structure, sweet but pretty balanced, bit young and therefore slightly closed....should mature well....

Summer Picnic wines (Luneau-Papin, Merkelbach, Sineann): Really nice on a hot evening with some spicy food. My non-geek friend almost consumed the entire bottle and she rarely drinks much! The nose is very "fruity", some pineapple notes. Slightly viscous and sweet but falls short of being cloying. Barely a hint of petrol. Nice finish.

Seattle Wine Group - Feb 2015 Tasting - Theme: Riesling -- Dry & Dessert (Amaroso Room - Wine Storage Bellevue): Nose was rich and sweet-seeming with some minerality and lime zest. Palate had crisp green apples and a very complimentary hint of citrus. Ripe and rounded attack, sweet, slightly honeyed. Lovely balance, very long and fine with good acidity to discreetly balance the almost lip-smacking sweetness.

I thought this was beautiful. Hedonistically enjoyable. Went fast.

This isn't as well-composed as the 2005 but there is more of everything here. Brighter, richer fruit (tropically flavored) and a juicier structure.
