Stunningly good Alsacian riesling. Huge, and complex nose just explodes from the glass. Loads of minerals/crushed stone. Impeccable balance. Long, complex, expansive finish. You couldn't ask for more.

Wow. The nose was like smelling freshly washed linens with an extra dose of minerals. The palate had a great undercurrent of tropical fruit, candied lemons, and a powerful acidic finish. Still a baby.

Seattle Tasting Group does whites from Alsace, Germany and Austria (Seattle, WA, USA): The nose is spicy and mineral laden with honey and a faint off aroma of rubber. There was some debate was to whether this was corked, but our two most cork sensitive noses felt strongly that it wasn't. On the palate this quickly dispelled any notion of being off. Explosive, massive, a hint of sweetness and honey, this is awesomely young, primary and powerful. A breathtaking white wine! Group average 93.625.
