Thoughts

A little sweet for my taste, but this would be a great intro to reisling for a non-wine drinker. I had it with a spicy curry. The sweetnest worked ok with the spiciness of the curry, but it wasn’t a great pairing. I might be a good wine to serve with some salty snacks as a starter.

Tasting Notes

  • Medium straw in color, medium intensity
  • Low viscosity
  • Lots of melon, citrus, apple, and honeysuckle in the nose
  • Some fresh cut grass on the palate
  • Slightly minerality
  • Sweet
  • Light body
  • Medium-plus acidity
  • Medium alcohol
  • Medium-plus finish. The sweetness really lingers with some vegetal quality that comes on at the end.
