Tuesday, October 21, 2014 - Big Game Rieslings (Count's place, NY): A fantastic Riesling, totally seamless, at peak, and really compelling to sit down with and follow over a few hours. There's great complexity here, a fragrance that combines sweet citrus fruits, honeycomb and smoky aromas with higher toned herbal and wintergreen notes (both of us commented that this smelled more like a Ruwer or Saar wine than a middle Mosel), and a palate presence that's incredibly light and airy with all the layers of flavour coming together very elegantly with barely any sense of weight. There's just a faint hint of sweetness here - less than most Kabinett - and plenty of acidity that keeps it impeccably balanced. This is a real winner.
