Tasting Notes
COLOR:
Pale straw with a hint of green.
NOSE:
Aromas of green apple, lime zest, and white peach are prominent, along with floral notes of jasmine and honeysuckle. There are subtle mineral hints of wet stone and slate, characteristic of dry Rieslings from mineral-rich soils.
TASTE:
On the palate, the wine is light to medium-bodied, with bright acidity and flavors of citrus (lime, lemon), green apple, and stone fruit like apricot and peach. The crisp acidity balances the fruit, creating a refreshing and clean texture. Mineral notes, especially flint or slate, add complexity, along with hints of white flowers and a slight salinity.
FINISH:
The finish is long and dry, with lingering citrus and mineral notes, leaving the palate refreshed.
