"Medium green-yellow. Initially shy nose opens with air to reveal blossom honey- laced peach, apricot and pineapple, followed by soft smoky flint and a hint of caraway. Complex and tautly strung, with noteworthy finesse. The complex peach, apricot and strawberry fruit flavors are still somewhat subdued and require a bit more time to fully express themselves. An extremely promising riesling that will require a bit of patience. Drink 2012 to 2022."

A highly aromatic white of piercing acidity and transparency to terroir, ranging from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. It ages remarkably and is the noble grape of Germany and Alsace.
