  Sparkling acidity felt like someone playing an electric guitar next to a baroque painting. A little off, but other than that a great Riesling. Age was hard to guess, it felt somewhat ageless.

  Nigl does not get the attention it deserves. This wine is all about precision and electricity, couple with grace. It’s a lime and mineral cocktail, connected to a live 400 volt wire. Early days yet for this wine, which resembles the dry Alsatian Rieslings of a long ago ere, when dry meant dry, and immortality was all but certain.

  Deep gold
  Slap you in the face petrol
  Then some lemon citrus with a creamy feel in a huge chunk. Feels sweet almost, but bone dry.
  Rather bold.
  Not a gentle Riesling, but so fascinating

  Screw cap 13.5%

  Not sure how to express the whole of thos, other than beguiling. The wine swirls through the mind, tracing echoes of fruit, but also waves of tension, along with an undercurrent of electricity. Just when it seems as though it is poised to strike, it brings out a soft blanket of creaminess, buffering the shock, caressing For just a moment, before it sinks it’s metallic nails in for another shot.
