"Lime zest and green apples perfume this zesty, green-fruited sip. Properly feinherb in style, there's just a whisper of sweetness glazing the palate like lace against a backdrop of pristine, spine-tingling gooseberry and grapefruit flavor. An energizing wine that's delicious now but should hold well through 2024. - ANNA LEE C. IIJIMA"

wine enthusiast 90 pts"Crystalline minerality and delicate earth tones accentuate crisp nectarine and yellow peach in this semidry, concentrated Riesling. It's stony and sleek yet luxuriously fruity. The finish is marked by zesty acidity a high-toned tang of steel. Enjoy now–2026. - Anna Lee C. Iijima"
