Being from the the Rheingau, fruit and flowers are the stars here. You still get that signature petrol and minerality, but they take a supporting role. Ripe melon and a plethora of lovely florals come through - elderflower, honeysuckle, hibiscus and ginger all present. Not as much acid on the palate as I would expect. It's playful but doesn't possess that razor sharp precision you would get from a top Mosel Riesling.

Light and sweet, like really good key lime pie. Great with spicy Asian food.
