August 8, 2023 - PnP, consumed over 3 hours. Appearance: Clear, medium yellow. Nose: Clean, medium+ intensity with aromas of bee's wax, honey, green apple, acacia, and lime. Palate: Clean, medium+ acid, full body with an unctuous mouth-feel with some residual sugar, medium intensity, 8.5% abv with flavors of honey, green apple, and lime and a medium+ finish.
Balance: Excellent
Length: Excellent
Intensity: Very good
Complexity: Very good
Overall, a pretty nice Cali Reisling in a Spatlese format. Drinking well today upon opening, as others have noted the acidity is lower than your typical German Riesling, however I believe this still has a 3+ year drinking window. -

February 7, 2022 - These RS Rieslings are not usually in my wheelhouse and indeed, this seemed too sweet and a little cloying - not enough acidity to balance it out. Pretty strong petrol note on the nose as well, which I don't particularly enjoy. It was okay and I drank a couple of glasses with dinner, so it was drinkable. My German MIL who has been visiting us for 7+ weeks did find the name of the wine amusing, though, so it was worth it just for that!

December 21, 2019 - Good flavor profile that leans toward ripe peach. Needs a bit more acidity.
