2018 base. 4 grams dosage and disgorged 4/22. Nose is all wet earth and yeast. Lemon peel, toast, citrus (tangelo?) skin as well. Really nice, layered and complex aromas. Lonely, mineral and tree bark aromas as well. Palate is juicy and clean with explosive lemon and grapefruit citrus fruit and terrific purity and freshness. Good sap and very clean. Needs air as I reckon this has more to tell. Nose gets some saline as well with air and the palate becomes juicier. It’s very good but so far not special. Really has good palate presence. — 8 months ago

I like FLX rieslings, HJW’s better than most. With that basis, this one is an A-. Structure and flavor is good with mild layering. But of sweet flowery notes (without making the overall wine sweet). — a month ago

This was great with the meal. Lighter yet complex fruit and not much pepper at all. — 6 months ago

Light, translucent gold color. Massive pencil shavings on the nose with subtle petrol and stewed pineapples. Sweet pineapples on the palate with medium plus depth. Medium finish. Very nice. — 8 months ago
