Birthday lunch with Chiu Haylette Werner Fanie and fam. — a year ago
Star bright straw gold with green highlights. Inviting nose of yellow apple and orange blossom. Medium palate of bright yellow apple, honey, and white peach. Bracing acidity balances the off-dryness making for a great accompaniment to roasted poultry or pork. Drink now through 2030. — 4 years ago
Deep but not overpowering flavor, strong slightly unpleasant finish — 3 months ago
Great acid. Grapefruit and lemon. Dry. Not hugely complex. — 5 years ago
Bright beige gold. Abundant nose and medium palate of crisp red apple, white flowers, honey, and a hint of flinty mineral. Medium acidity, slightly low for the appellation. Medium long finish. Excellent Rhein Range Riesling that's great with a spicy leaning (think chipotle or ancho chile) fare as well as fresh fruit and fruit based desserts. Drink now for the fruit, by 2037 for the development. — 6 months ago
Star bright tannish gold. Surprisingly abundant nose of Royal Gala apples with a hint of flint. Still too young fir the flint to dominate, but it’s there. Medium light, layered palate echoes the nose wrapped around firm mouthwatering acidity and leading into a lengthy stony almost saline finish. German dry Riesling has come a long way since the turn of the century and this GG representative of the renowned 2017 vintage makes the case grandly. An excellent VDP authorized (look for the eagle) Riesling that will compliment a wonderful range of foods. Asian cuisine (non-spicy) or Euro-American pork dishes are naturals. Drink now through 2032 or so when the flint has taken the lead. — 4 years ago
No wine gets a 10! But my god! This is an amazing Riesling. So good with spicy foods like Jamaican jerk chicken. — 4 years ago
