  Plush, medium body and potent acidity. Pineapple, melon, almond, and petrol are dominant on the palate. Finish has some nice mineral that emerges. This isn't an especially complex Riesling, but it's well-knit and plenty tasty.

  A somewhat atypical Alsace riesling, with flavors of lime and quince and no petrol or rubber that I could discern. The quince reminded me more of chenin blanc than riesling. I thought this wine could use more complexity, but I gave it an extra point for distinctiveness in my rating.

  A bit young in my view but a lot of potential.

  Mid yellow. On the nose there is some lime cordial, cut citrus, and an almost honeysuckle like floral character. Nice balance on the palate, with plenty of lemon/lime character and quite crisp acidity to close. Decent drinking now, but the acid suggests it could evolve for at least a couple more years in the cellar.

  Pale golden color. Expressive nose. Citrus fruit. Hints of menthol. Ripe lime. Palate its a balance between ripeness and freshness. Same citrus fruits. Crystaline.
  Very nice
