I have somewhat limited experience with domestic Riesling, but this is so crushable.

Appearance: Pale gold with a very slight greenish tinge, light to medium body, translucent

Nose: Lemon rind, pineapple, petrol-plastic (in the best way)

Taste: pineapple without the biting acidity or sweetness, some green melon, light petrol, Granny Smith green apple

Would say a pleasant surprise but Marcus Goodfellow just kills it more often than not. We paired this with Thai chili crab cakes and a green apple slaw with chili lime cashews and fish sauce based marinade. Perfection. Need some more of this in my life.

Great balance of tannin and acidity with Riesling varietal chapter. Great food paring.
