Community Tasting Notes 3

  • uncorked.fr Likes this wine:

    April 17, 2024 - No bells or whistles on this little beauty but given the name of the wine, I think that is exactly the point. Although certainly not very complex, it is incredibly vibrant, pure and zesty and the stony, slightly saline finish lingers on and on. The acidity and minerality admittedly might be a bit much for some but I have to say that I really enjoyed this.

    APPEARANCE:
    Color & intensity: medium lemon

    NOSE:
    Intensity: medium (+)
    Aromas: lemon, crushed stone, acacia blossom, lime, lemon zest, hints of salt and petrol
    Development: developing

    PALATE:
    Sweetness: dry
    Acidity: high
    Alcohol: medium
    Body: medium
    Intensity: medium (+)
    Flavors: lemon, lemon zest, green apple, crushed stone, hint of salt
    Finish: long

    CONCLUSIONS:
    Quality level: very good
    Potential for ageing: can drink now but has good potential for some further ageing

  • thomasbahr80 Does not like this wine: 85 points

    July 8, 2022 - Colour: medium straw, no sediment
    Nose: dominated by petrol, not much fruit
    Mouth: Petrol, citrus, "stahlig", rather closed at the moment, more driven by minerality and dusty notes

    Not my preferred style of Riesling, to linear and fruit/complexity missing, might also be currently in the difficult transition phase

    June 27, 2022 - Just a few notes. Apples, minerals, good and focused acidity. Clean wine.
