Apr 19th, 2017First Kerner. Have heard that this is one of the better ones out there and I can see why; it's quite good. Pours a medium (-) straw-gold hue. Aromas of lemon curd and slightly underripe mango, fresh mint, slightly funky wet stone minerality, lavender and gardenia floral character, and a bit of creamy, leesy hard cheese rind character. Palate shows the same character as the nose but with a bit more clean, lean mineral intensity and the slightest bit of phenolic bitterness. Medium (+) acid, medium (-) body with nice leesy oiliness. Dry but not completely bone dry. Interesting, to be sure! Kind of reminds me of a middle ground between the drier styles of Alsatian Pinot Gris and dry Alto Adige Gewürztraminer.
