Very enjoyable. Pale lemon, clear ish with noticable sediment not sure if lees or grape but doesn't detract from wine. Nose of both green and ripe red apple, pear, yellow pluot, light yeast/croissant with quickly fading fine bubbles-almost petnat style mousse not traditional method-after 2 mins in glass almost still wine or perhaps lightly spritzy, def not champagne style mousse. Still enjoyable but different than expected.
Palate consistent with nose, med acid, med - alcohol, med dry, light body, med+ mostly primary flavor with some 2nd. Med finish.
Very good quality wine, drink now but given Riesling acidity would be eager to try again in 3-5 years but alas....
