  Cellar Raid: Riesling (Extra Space, Singapore): Pretty good, but this must be the most un-German dry Riesling I have ever tried. A lot of it must have been down to the vintage - I actually was quite sure it was a rich Alsace style. Golden yellow in colour. Nose showed mushrooms, beeswax and honeyed yellow fruit laced through with some chalk and floaty orange blossom flowers. Very weighty on the palate, with plenty of spice, a bready, yeasty undertone and more honey and yellow fruit coating the mouth. Thankfully, the waxy, almost oily texture was matched with fresh citrus acidity, presented with almost orange accents at points. Finish was just a little shortish, otherwise this was very decent. I thought it just struggled a little amongst some solid company on the day.
