Darkening straw. Pretty closed-in nose–a little yeasty and spicy apply pie is about all. Dusty and honesly a little dank. Slight petrol.
Creamy entry and labeled sweetness with a touch more petrol than bouquet. Crisp wide-band acidity comes on strong and fades away nicely leaving you your 1.7 mouthfeel.
A nice wine. All nuances good… no serious flaws. Compared to a quality dry riesling, it is shallow and fat and completely un-exotic. But clean and nice. Just really not my style. 13-9 OMG Loses a full point for that.
