  Light gold color. Pineapple and petrol on the nose. Massive 4th of July sparklers with a sweetness component on the palate. Medium minus depth and medium finish. Very enjoyable. My best bottle of this wine and vintage.

  Riesling on Thanksgiving is turning into a tradition!
  
  Better than previous bottles. Nicely balanced between petrol, sweetness, and acidity. Wine could have used a little more zip, but high quality. Paired well with cheese and shrimp cocktail.

  Always solid. Rounder than usual but not overly sweet. Could use some more zip.

  I don’t think these Rieslings are meant for aging. Petrol on the nose but subdued flavors on the palate. Medium plus depth but lacked acidity.

  Prior bottle was almost 19 months ago and this wine has evolved positively. Apple, white peach and white pineapple on the nose. Close to medium bodied with white apple and a touch of white pear upfront. White peach has become more dominant through the middle with some yellow peach notes and some tropical highlights behind. Still balanced with lemon and acidity on the backside. Overall, the wine has opened up nicely, showing more white peach/light tropical to go along with the more standard white apple/pear. Should continue to drink well for a bit, but probably best to drink over the next 18-24 months to get the most out of it.
