Best white @ Thanksgiving. This was pure electricity, feels like it can last a long time with its balance and energy. Sorry I don't have more. One of the top three Rieslings I've had over the last year. For $12.

The high amount of R.S. is held in place by the ripping acidity. The fruit (apples, pears) have some honey notes and a touch of citrus ... almost a blood orange flavor. Strong mineral presence balances out the fruit. Finish goes on for minutes.
Excellent QPR too ... what more would you want. Fill up your credit card on this one. It's got the legs to last for well over a decade and the powerful fruit taste to carry it well into a 2nd decade. Inexpensive enough to drink every night and powerful enough that you'd want to.

Oh my goodness, this wine is outrageous!! The most crisp explosive Riesling fruit I might have ever had which stayed in your mouth for ever it seemed. My wife and I usually drink Spatlese and Auslese, but we were blown away by this. Have looked around for more but cannot find any. If you come across this buy all they have!

Very good. Strong minerals on the nose. Muted flavors of apple, tropical fruit. Not very sweet, but very interesting.

Outstanding, as young as it is, just wait 10 years or so! Seeded fruit and tropicals, competing acidity and sweetness, lingering finish.
