  • Nice fruit (lemon, lime, apple, slight peach), honey, nice floral, good acidity. Bright. Lingering finish. Really enjoyable.

  • A noticeable step up from the Kilburg, showing quite nicely with apple, pear, white flowers and honey on the nose, and a creamy rich palate with med+ density and a good well balanced finish. Benefits a lot from the vintage I think, but I really liked this and am looking forward to trying other Steinmetz wines.

  • Lunch with Rich: Aromatic, showy, lemon-lime, white flowers; palate is medium bodied, vibrant medium-plus acidity throughout, tangy sweet and sour candy, lemon-lime, slight white peach; finish is medium-plus length. This is showing well and very enjoyable. 91-92
    Day 2: Well balanced, perhaps a bit less vibrant acidity but replaced with a bit more peach fruit, white flowers, still with some tangy lemon-lime throughout. Lovely riesling and great value.

  • Day 2: Jesus this is intense. An alloy of sharp lime citrus and salty minerals. Some honeysuckle and a little sweeter tropical. Wow. The palate is packed to the gills with sharp lime, saline minerals. Tons of dry extract and huge acid. Also some hints of creme. Softens in the middle a bit. The end of the palate and the finish come on explosively - with the lime and minerals again. Grippy and long and really crisp. Nose - 5.5/6, Palate - 5/6, Finish - 5-5.5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1-1.5/2 = 16.5-17.5/2.

  • In short , this is stunning. It’s like a frickin fruit stand on the nose. Lightweight on the palate with enough acidity to wake you up, but not enough to strip your teeth. It has a lemon-lime taste that is balanced with grape and white peach. The minerality is impeccable and balanced as well. Excellent to Outstanding.
