2012 vintage. Scent of stale apple juice. Tastes like vodka mixed with apple juice.

Not a wimpy Riesling at all. Medium-dry with a medium-full body that carries the ripe fruit all the way through

I liked the comparison to vodka with apple juice. Not a good wine

Faint hints of peach strong notes of lime peel. Unbalanced with low sweetness for a wine sold as medium dry.
