Wine tasted very fresh and young, which is not surprising given the screw top. Classic young Riesling flavors, medium-long finish, good balance of sweetness and acidity. It is still quite light on its feet, which I think is positive. Had with home-made General Tso's chicken one day, and as an aperitif on two others. Stayed fresh in the cellar all 4 days.

Fresh, bracing and very drinkable - this is exactly what it should be, a textbook example of Rheingau Riesling without a ton of complexity owing to its less than truly noble site. On a cool fall day with a pork loin on the grill (food pairing note!!) it is a great match.

Marvelous QPR. Vibrant acidity with balanced fruit. A real treat at this price

This wine is fresh, with sweet and acid balanced nicely. Quite simple but very good none the less.
