Community Tasting Notes 5

    March 29, 2024 - One of the best Riesling I ever tasted 👏🥂👏

    Wonderful clear bright gold yellow color, beautiful👏

    Medium to light body. High acidity (but the honey... completely dominant). Very mineral👏

    Amazingly aromatic, citrus, green tree fruits, petroleum.. really addicting👏

    Same on the palate: lemon, lime, apple, pear, peach, apricot, melon, petroleum, honey,salt, stone, in an intensive but very balanced and harmonic manner👏

    What a wonderful wine, and so very enjoyable, almost addicting, sorry that I bought one👏🥂

    May 3, 2023 - 11.5% abv. AP 11. NOSE: Steel dust. Red delicious apple. Salted cream. Fleeting sensations of cassis and leaf. MOUTH: preciously balanced and showing signs of bottle development. Magnolia, fescue, and strawberry pulse within seams of blanched bedrock. A glossy core lines up salted fruit for a deliberate, classical finish. There's a nice little grasp of clay grip there too—steeped in bitter, glycerin marc in a way that suggests open landscapes of terroir. This particular back label includes text advising to drink it through 2028, and I can only agree with that.

    June 11, 2022 - This is an amazing value at $15. Long life ahead and to my palate perfect balance. As before better after a night or two of opening. I am planning to lay some down for 10+ years but it is approachable now too. Tonight served with grilled pork chops and grilled white peaches. Boom

    November 11, 2021 - First night this was good, but after being open to air for a day this improves. I love the balance here between the fruit and acidity, and unlike many feinherb this has great poise and is not awkward. Air softens the slightest edge of acid. Will let this sit for at least 10 to transform it

    April 26, 2021 - A wonderful marriage of acidly and residual sugar. A perfect pairing with spicy or richly flavored dishes. Outstanding pairing for chicken meatballs with harissa, chickpeas, & tomatoes.
