Richer and more fecund style for Leitz. Nice petrol on the nose and quite dry on the palate. Apple skin and tart pear.

This is zest and bright with peach, tangerine, lemon peel and a pretty petrol accent on the nose. The zesty fruit tones continue on the palate with nice extract and density. RS is nicely balance by the acidity. Quite mineral and focused on the finish. It is gorgeous to enjoy now but there is no rush.

It's 80 degrees in Seattle & too early in the season to haul out the AC, so a boisterous bright chilled fruity Riesling is the ticket.

Well constructed. High acid meets high sugar and they balance each other well. A glassy wine that will age well and drinks well.
