  Light gold color. Lovely w/ pristine purity & weightless freshness. A laser beam of racy minerality, micro effervescence & refinement. Absolutely no fusil and just the cleanest of fleeting citrus & mineral aromas. Hint of pineapple. Very, enjoyable! 92+ 7% alc This has the stretched extra tall Riesling btl which looks cool but makes it harder to find a standing spot in the frig.

  Doubt it will ever happen but "someday" I'd like to go back to Germany and do a deeper dive on the Moselle. Especially, everything from Bernkasteler south to the two tributaries Saar & Ruwer. For now, I'll need to settle for enjoying the unique terroir driven experience of drinking wines from the Saar Ruwer. Tonight's btl had that signature pristine purity and weightless freshness I crave from the Ruwer. This btl was a laser beam of racy minerality, micro effervescence and refinement. Absolutely no fusil and just the cleanest of fleeting citrus and mineral aromas. Light green gold color. 7% alc The stretched btls of modern Riesling packaging today is very cool but dam inconvenient to fit in the frig after you pull the cork. That said, you'd be hard pressed to find a more beautifully classic label. If you can't get to the Ruwer you can at least gaze upon the gorgeous label depiction. If, I ever get back to the Moselle I'm going to climb up into the super steep vineyards. Drinking this makes me long to return.

  Pineapple, Granny Smith apple, hits the palate with a bang then continues to a long smooth finish.
