  a taste of Washington State - Long Shadows wines: [in collaboration with Armand Diel from Germany]
  
  very pale greenish yellow and light-bodied. nose is a bit reticent and shows no petrol at the moment… instead citrus notes of grapefruit peel and lime, yellow peach, and orange blossoms. slightly off-dry and a bit austere on the entry, the nectarine and tangerine flavours emerge slowly but gain in concentration with time and temperature. an acidic core and a mineral vein with a spicy edge provide lovely contrast that carries into the moderate length.
  
  Kabinett-style Riesling that is at the border of Trocken and Feinherb, and likely could use just a wee bit more time to gain expressiveness.
  
  12.4% AbV; 11g/L RS, 7.9g/L acidity; from a vintage that ran long and ended very hot
