Really impressed with this wine. Very well priced for an Alsace Grand Cru. Guava, ripe pear, hint of lime. Mouth feel is silky smooth with a nice crisp acid finish. Very good at peak drink now.

{screwcap, 12.5%} Lemon yellow colour; good for age. Developing nose of melon, minerals, white flowers. Quite a dense, minerally Riesling, with gentle tropical flavours but not too sweet, but with a strong mineral edge. Medium weight, with medium acid, and a dry, intense and medium length even finish along the tongue. Will hold longer still, even develop, but very attractive now.

Good value and a good riesling. Developing nicely underscrewcap. Lemon, peach, granny smith apple, wax, honey, and a whiff of petrol. Lacks a bit of length and minerality but there's a good depth of fruit and flavour.

Apples, flowers, hints of honey on the nose, typical and nice young, moderately ripe riesling. Almost totally dry. Apple, citrus, mineral palate, nicely balanced, fresh enough, rather soft. Spicy, and very mineral finish. Very long. Quite a pleasure!
