Tasting:

She said: Very pale yellow, clear, with closely spaced fat legs. Mild slightly fruit aroma followed by substantial fruity flavor with a touch of tartness. Light body and pleasant acidity that created a delightful crispness. Excellent with the dinner. I enjoyed the wine after dinner as a sipping wine but that is probably because it is not a typical Riesling. I am not fond of sweet wines especially Rieslings but this one is not the slightest bit sweet so I loved it. I am sad to see that a Riesling I like is so pricey but it is a very good wine.
