Winery Review: "This drier-styled Riesling is bright, fruity and floral with crisp acidity and clean flavors of apple, pear and peach that compliment its stony minerality and earthy complexity. It serves well as an aperitif and matches a wide variety of foods, like lighter salad dishes, shellfish, cream sauces and also anything with a touch of spice."
My Review: A delightful Riesling! Refreshing and young, this would pair very well with seafood or salad. On the nose there was freshly cut grass, hay, and cold tangerines. The palate had green apple, green grapes, and strawberry banana. There was a mineral component, that gave this tones of cold and steely metal. The surface texture was smooth and cool, with a medium-long finish. I will keep a look out for this Riesling, because I did enjoy it.
