Light gold-yellow in color. Forward, attractive & fragrant nose of youthful, ripe fruit aromas of apples, pears & lemon/lime zest with lovely floral notes of honeysuckle & jasmine, minerals, honey, stones & some spices. Light bodied with a good concentration of balanced, smooth textured, youthful, ripe fruit flavors of yellow peaches, green apples, nectarines & citrus notes of lemons/limes with honey, spices, stony & minerals. Long lingering crisp finish with just a touch of sweetness. Drinks quite well at present but has the underlying structure and fruit to continue its evolution with additional aging. [A.P. Nr. 2 576 566 2 13; Alc. 8%]

Rich, luscious fruit, more what one would expect of a Spätlese than a Kabinett. Medium body, savory, no great complexity but delicious to drink. A very well made Riesling of excellent value.
