Still pleasant, although showed rather linear characteristics this time. Pale lemon colour with a hint of god, the nose is attractive, floral and lime leaves with a good dose of petroleum. The taste is light bodied, off dry and shows the same soft lime cordial notes. The finish was rather abrupt. I think I'll leave the rest of this case for some time now, so see whether it becomes more complex with age - I'll be disappointed of it remains this linear.

Very good on it's own, this didn't stand out in a stellar tasting of Rieslings. Nevertheless it's attractive with a floral smell of white flowers and rose petals, with some lime marmalade. The taste is delightfully off-dry, pure and clean, with a racy acidity and spicy finish.

Brought to a friend's Thanksgiving Potluck Dinner. The sugar had integrated somewhat so this was not as sweet as I thought it might be. Really good and friends liked it.

Charming floral wine with a hint of lime cordial sweetness, but it falls away towards the end. Not the persistence of some other vintages. I would drink this slightly on the cold side to counteract the softness.
