A clear commitment to the grape in this dry style is evident in the glass. Delicate floral aromas lead to a pure Riesling flavor expression and a finish that has great push and intensity. While it’s a delight now, extended aging will reap rewards. We need more of this domestically! I’ve got a long vertical of this in my cellar – waiting for me as I am waiting for it.
