  Open and fruity nose of peaches and melon. A bit waxy and honeyed.
  Dry and medium bodied on the palate with acidity keeping the whole pretty refreshing. Some grapefruit pith bitterness towards the finish.
  A nice sip for the price. Lacks a bit of extra finesse/fruit/intensity to be memorable though. But sure pour me a glass - anytime.

  pale yellow colour, has small bubbles of carbonic acid, smells of melon, a little bit of apricot and a tiny bit of acidity, in the mouth melon, minerality and some fruityness, has a fine acidity which balances a tiny bit of residual sugar without leaving the dry range, in the aftertaste melon and acidity, a rather short finish (10 sec), a good Riesling for a fair price,

  Bright straw yellow colour. Honey and white peaches on the nose. Taste of apples and lime with hints of white flowers, peaches and limestone. Slightly pearly in the mouth. Finishes with lemon. Great with sushi or rich fish. Might also go well with Asian food.

  Fresh with pronounced and lively acidity. Mineral and rheinhessen spicy, I thought. Excellent introduction to the producer, but lacks length and concentration for a higher score.
