  Nice apple nose, but almost complete sugar water. Perhaps a bad bottle or just a bad night to taste, but 'blech'

  We had Dr. Heidemanns Kabinett last month, and really enjoyed it. I wanted to see if I could taste the difference in this QBA wine. Pale straw yellow, almost platinum in the glass. A very muted nose of honeydew melon, with some herbal notes. On the palate I tasted wet rocks minerality, with indistinguishable citrus flavors. Light to medium bodied without much acidity. The finish was short and featured slight citrus flavors. Disappointing considering how much I liked the Kabinett, although this is a step down in price. There was no complexity, not much fruit, and a short finish. But this was easy to drink, and I think it represented a European Riesling pretty well with the minerality on the palate. At $10 I don't think it's a bad value, but I would probably try other Rieslings before I came back to this.

  Pale yellowish in the glass. Notes of apricot and red apple on the nose, with ample flavors of red apple, apricot, mineral, and peach in the glass. Medium-high acidity, light body, well-balanced. Crisp, neat finish. A very nice bottle for the money -- a good introduction to German Riesling.
