  It was mother's day and I was making dinner for my wife (and two kids) and her mom (and father) who live a mere block away. Don't gert me wrong, they are wonderful! (But they live a mere block away.) My mother-in-law LOVES wine with a hint of sweetness, so this was an (almost) obvious choice: a decade out but still bright citrus and more than a splash of petrol on the nose. The palate is surprisingly tart (lemon-lime) and deep (great acidity). In the end? This wine proved that Loosen has it in spades and that my in-laws are close. A block away close. thedrunkencyclist.com

  Riesling Riot 2018: Honey, toast and kerosene. Toasty on the palate as well, drinking well now, probably around its peak. Medium length.

  Riesling Riot downunder (Town Hall, Sydney): Slight kerosene and the fruit is quite muted beneath this on the nose. Juicy, apples and slight kerosene. Stony minerality. Hmm

  Still fresh and flavorful. Not really developing a diesel character yet, but my goodness is this wine good. Tremendous acidity, fruit and a long juicy finish. Sad that this is my last bottle.
