  Snygg och ren med citrus och bensinmack men ändå lite tomt i tanken. Kunde nog ha druckits flera år tidigare.

  Pnp with curry at home. Fully mature with a light to medium golden color. Still good acidity and freshness, citrus, candied lemon but also a touch of bitterness on the mid palate. Would drink up.

  Light golden colour.
  Nose: Lots of apples, sweet lemon and flinty minerality. Petroleum, quince, white peaches, white currants, sweet almonds, marzipan, hint of birch wood smoke. Great nose. (90p)
  Taste: Quite intense taste; lots of apples, citrus and stony/flinty minerality. Rich body. The wine is dry, but mature fruit and acidity gives it a feeling of roundness and slight sweetness. The exit and aftertaste displays more stone fruit bitterness. (88p)
  Mature wine which drinks extremely well now, but will probably keep well for another 3-5 years, if not longer. This is Hugel’s entry level Riesling and has always been a great buy, with consistently high quality, clean fruitiness and longevity. Despite its obvious quality, class and purity, it’s missing real complexity and remains somewhat one dimensional. Total score 89 points.

  Served to us blind by the sommelier the guesses were Alsace or Australian Riesling. This wine is very mellow in a good way, a true food wine and went fantastic with the beautiful grilled scallop with almonds & yuzu butter.

  Under an agglomerated cork (Ugh). This is now the last bottle of this wine that I did not realize I had, and it is holding up well. A slight golden tinge on the color hints at its age. On the palate, tons of lemon, a bit of minerality, and just a tiny suggestion of petrol. On the palate? Dry as a bone, with vibrant acidity and a admirable finish. Honestly, this might have scored higher if it had a "real" cork or, even better, a screw cap. Very Good. thedrunkencyclist.com
