5/12. 10.5% abv. AP 01. 60° F. Dazzling. eventful stuff. Shocking to smell, like a stocked pincushion, like shards of green glittering rock. A drink is variously explosive with brittle salt, hurried with green strawberry, green caraway seed, and pretty sensations too. It's replete with Mosel Riesling typicity (red delicious / ginger / lime / cassis / knee-deep spring blossom litter.) All the way dry, arguably assertive in that regard, while it delivers repeated blows of pungent fruits, cultured roots, and flowers. ________ Still terrific 24 and 48 hours after opening, and a perfect Sunday dinner aperitif.

4/12. 10.5% abv. AP 01. An exemplary meeting of contradictory extremes: 1) austerity, weightless tension, and 2) sappy herb oils and saline. Whole ripe lemon bodies. Very long and savory. This is like a 90 point wine with an extra mark of adrenaline.

On the nose, soft orchard fruit with petrol afterward.
On the palate, peach and lemon that got leaner and zestier over time. Some herbal/thyme. Honey mouthfeel that I haven't tasted before in a riesling. Shortish finish.

3/12. This wine keeps getting better. Blooming in expression. Deepening dryness.
