  Powerful expression of off-dry Riesling. Citrus, honeysuckle, and petrol notes throughout, backed by impressive steeliness and terroir markers. Medium plus acid frames the wine beautifully. Let it breathe!

  To get straight to the point, this wine is quality, and represents an excellent value at the price. Very mineral aroma with hint of petrol, racy and bracing acidity with citrus components and notable minerality. Excellent presentation of the riesling grap.

  Nice green apples and citrus on the nose.
  Follows on the palate, with very slight residual sugar, and a med- length that seems clipped, with a hollow mid palate.
  I was expecting more from this wine, it is tasty and refreshing, but simple and short. Drink now.

  Nose: There is a nice freshness to the nose with green apples, figs, white peaches, and some white fruits. While the nose isn't screaming with depth and layering, there is very good balance to go with the freshness to the tones.
  
  Taste: Light bodied with medium+ acidity. There is a deft touch with green apples, figs, and white fruits while the acidity is more on the refreshing and cleansing side.
  
  Overall: This is a nice hint of residual sugar on this. While a little more depth would really make the wine, this is still very enjoyable and refreshing.

  Honey, peach and pear. Lovely. Sweeter when first opened then settles down. Well balanced.
