(Herman J. Wiemer Riesling Dry Finger Lakes) The nose is somewhat floral with light petrol notes, but it's dominated by that classic peach-lime-wet stone combination I've noticed in many of the Finger Lakes' best rieslings. If you want to know what "a typical Finger Lakes riesling" smells like, this is it. The feather-light palate is alive with citrusy acidity -- more than many 2007s -- that more than balances the .9% residual sugar. Peach and lime flavors dominate here, with white flowers and super-subtle sweet herbs behind. The petrol notes from the nose are barely noticeable on palate, but there is a terrific minerally vein throughout. A long, peachy finish ends with a citrus zest note. I don't want to overuse the word "classic" here, but this is a classic Finger Lakes riesling, and it's very well priced.

Evident petrol nose with crushed stone and verbena. Excellent weight and mouthfeel. very long finish with notes of hazelnut (tasted from 375ml bottle).

Someone has a very loose definition of dry, as this is anything but. Still it's a tasty wine, with plenty of apple and peach fruit. There is a bit of developed creaminess, and even the beginnings of a nutty, oxidative element that is light enough to add complexity, rather than obscure the other virtues of the wine. Very good stuff, just don't call it dry.

Fairly faint nose of lemon, apple, and peach. On the palate, all fruit: pear, peach, lime. A bit soft, creamy. Lime pith finish. Good.

Dinner; 1/18/2015-1/19/2015 (The Palace, Mission, SF): Oily petrol, minerally; palate is off-dry, rich, oily, white fruit; medium length finish. Very nice, and it has character. 89-90
