Really blossomed since last opening one of these. Full, beautiful riesling. Not the greatest bottle or anything, but punches way above its price point, to mix a metaphor.

Dry and crisp, almost Sauvignon Blanc like. Lemon, herbal/grassy aspects, and a little bitterness on the back end. Very austere, yet (noted by earlier reviews). Almost seems like there is a little oak influence, too. Can't say that I'm a fan right now, but it's not a bad wine. I think that this needs more time in bottle to soften its harsh edges. Only 87 right now, but could be 89-90 in a few years.

Very tasty and not sweet! Clean and crisp with a nice finish. It was a hit with a pork and sour cream stew which is otherwise kind of tough to match up. Lots of life in this wine.

This really needs more time in the bottle. For now, bracing acidity, lots of mineral potential, and little fruit. Could be a beauty; for now really austere.

Young and sharp as a tack. This wine is dry and fruity with firm acidity that makes this wine a refreshing change of pace. It is young a probably needs more time in the cellar.
