  Seemed a little flat, as if it's past its prime. A little bit more peach and floral flavor appeared as it warmed up. Still nice with my adobo chicken.

  Minerality is prominent on the nose, with background notes of peach and grapefruit. The palate brings a lovely combination of rock, citrus peel, white peach, and mint. This is medium-bodied, palate-coating Riesling that conveys richness and only the faintest whisper of sweetness. At just 12.4% alcohol, the acids shine, keeping things bright and refreshing, and the lingering finish is all about the rocks.

  Washington Wine Trip; 6/15/2012-6/19/2012: Very light straw in color, showing precise yet open aromatics of a steel-fermented Riesling, including citrus and light tropical nuances. A bit of wet gravel lurks playfully in the background. Flavors closely follow the nose, with the tension I found in the bouquet being slightly muted on the palate, to the point I thought this wine may have been matured in some neutral oak (the Sommelier said it had not). beautifully delineated lemon-lime and perhaps pineapple flavors are tart, focused and bright, leading into a medium length finish that allows this wine to pair so nicely with a wide variety of food. Should drink well for 2-3 years to come, although the bright fruit is so tasty right now.
  Paired this evening with a gorgeous slow-smoked Salmon with a sorrel aioli, alongside nori potatoes rolled in sea-grass, adorned with radish and dill. Absolutely perfect pairing.
