Yet another disappointing bottle. It was clearly oxidized. The color was deep gold, there was minimal fruit. It was drinkable. At some level it was even enjoyable, but not what I expected from an Alsatian Riesling.

A basic, easy to drink wine that I keep in the house. It "punches" well above its price point. The color is dark red. There is minimal bouquet. There is a nice balance of fruit and tannin. I have served many bottles of this wine and have never been disappointed.

The color was a very pale yellow. There was a minimal floral bouquet. The wine was semi dry, floral with minimal acidity. It was very pleasant and easy to drink alone or with food. When one considers the modest price this is an excellent wine.
