The minerality is pretty and gentle while the acid is perfectly mouth watering. Really classy wine.

Lovely aromatics of lemon zest, ginger, lychee & white flowers. On the palate notes of stone fruit, citrus & minerals accompany a food friendly acidity & dry finish. Paired very nicely w Roasted Chicken with Thyme & Caramelized Onions.

Just enough botrytis to be sexy without being slutty and a bang on palate of Alsatian Riesling electrical ballet.

This Riesling was made with grapes from biodynamic agriculture,. No machines were used in any stage of the winemaking.
Golden in color and Clean on the nose, with stone, clay,light diesel and minerals.
Medium bodied and 12.5% alcohol by volume.
Dry on the palate with a spicy and bitter finish. This is my first Alsace Riesling and this wasn't my favorite. Not a wine that can be drunk by itself.
I paired it with light seafood appetizers.

2012-petrol on nose; palate full of citrus & underripe apple/pear, waxy flowers; loads of minerality; nose delivers more than palate
