Soft, quiet, trades time and air for a shy personality - only after the bubbles have long said goodbye. And they go quick. Most of the Riesling DNA is hidden underneath. For a couple days, I had a hard time finding something to grasp onto, but we got there. At its peak, soft scented yellow apples and lemon.

disgorged aug 22. Color straw. coarse mousse. this is squelched when too cold. at just below cellar temp this sings. very versatile and delicious and i think ready to drink

Riesling Study Night #2 (1/21/23): A little prosecco-like on the nose, bright and crisp orchard fruit. Seems lacking in intensity, quite light in flavor. Lean orchard fruit, lean pear and apple, quince, touch of autolysis and lees yeast notes. A bit simple and straightforward. Not a bad brut though. Unfortunately it paled in comparison with the Tarlant 2004. 87-88 today, but I do not see too much upside with additional age.

Really nice way to celebrate our 33rd anniversary! Bought at a local wine store near the restaurant to drink with some great carry out Indian food, and it complemented the spiciness very well. Crisp with good minerality and flavors of green apple and pear, mainly. Lovely bottle that was so good we couldn’t stop drinking until the bottle was empty! Our first ever sparking Riesling, and it won’t be our last!

Very smooth, nicely integrated bubbles and sparkling riesling typically gooseberry flavour but not too intensely and neither too sweetish.
Quite decent...
