international wine cellar review- 87 Points
($20) Pale bright yellow. Restrained aromas of ginger, caraway seed, underripe pineapple, flowers and crushed stone, with a riper note of peach emerging with air. Dense, juicy and penetrating, with good texture and weight for a basic bottling. Finishes a bit warm, but there's no shortage of flavor here.
My Review: I was really excited to try this winery's riesling. The nose was fruity, a tropical fruit. The taste itself was not as impressive as I was hoping for (maybe the vintage?). The mid palette was short and sweet followed by a sour and very acidic finish. The finish was too strong and overpowered a lot of the subtle earlier tastes. I did not taste this with food.
