Barely took any note here, but this was really excellent and great value for $20- I could be underrating it, or at least it could easily age for a little while and continue to expand. Beautiful rich lemon and nectarine, a touch of rubber, dry and crisp without being sharp or puckery. I've had others with more depth and/or more vibrancy, but this is a really true example of Alsatian Riesling for very little $.

Bottle 1213g. Screw cap. Aromas of elevated intensity, lime and a whiff of kerosene that seem more Oz than Alsace. Dry but not bone, with pronounced crisp acidity, ripe tree fruit joining the lime, that impression of generosity that says Alsace, medium-bodied, 13% abv.

I'm impressed by the crisp, lemony fruit with a citrus and light floral nose which I drank by the glass at the highly recommended been around almost 100 years Knife & Fork restaurant in Atlantic City. (how do they sell this for only $10 a glass?) Pairs well with all seafood but has enough balance that it could be used as a dry sipper without food.

This affordable riesling is kept interesting by the petrolic influence both on the nose and the palate. Honeydew, apple, lemon.
Almost straightforward and simple, but again that petrolic note adds a lot.

Bottle 1205g. Screwcap, Aromas of elevated intensity, lime, and something soapy, cotton candy. Dry, with elevated zingy acidity, medium-bodied, 13% abv. Light citrus flavors, fairly linear, moderate length, pleasant, but not complex.
