  This had floral and a hint of diesel fuel on the nose. The balance between fruit and acidity was right on. Drank with grilled chicken marinated in soy, garlic and onion with pickled veggies and chile spiced green beans. Went great with the food. Would buy again.

  I loved this Riesling. Don't drink this too cold or you will mute the fabulous aromas and flavors. The nose has intense tangerine notes, with pineapple and passion fruit accents. There is a laser like acidity to the palate with a nice salinity and the same tropical fruit flavors echoed in the nose. It paired wonderfully with mahi mahi served with roasted carrots, turnips, shallots, and radishes with an agrodolce glaze

  Coravin-taste 23/10-15.
  
  Fruity nose with plenty of tropical fruit, pine-apples, passion fruit, lime, ripe apples and ripe pears. There is a bit of Riesling rubber as well. Lacks a bit of depth and character though.
  
  Palate is better with a medium+ acidity, medium body, packed with fruit and a dry, dusty finish. Good intensity and length.
  
  Plenty of wine for the buck here, but lacks a bit of refinement and elegance. You can surely get similar stuff for half the price.
