Lemon rind, honeydew, pencil shavings on the nose. Less exuberant in the palate, bit of an oily, citrus-y mess. Lemon, grapefruit, bitter herbs. Still a generous minerality in the mid-palate indicating it could probably go another 5 years. By then the palate will hopefully have developed.

A very fine dry Riesling with a wonderfully aromatic nose, very bright acidity, an excellent mouth feel, delicious lemon and lime fruit, and great persistence on the palette, at a fraction of the cost of Grosset's more famous Rieslings from the same vineyard.

Tight, lemon and lime, chalky. It's balanced really well and has enough acid profile to give it tremendous length and potentailly a very long life.
