Green apples and lime. Very open and relatively light. Lively but not especially long. Some light honey characters. (JR)

The aromas here suggest white Burgundy in their nutty, toasty and overtly chalky way. Brothy, rich and low-toned in flavors, quite creamy in texture, and finishing with notes of toasted nuts and pumpkin seeds, this is extremely dense for basic riesling. A slight warmth in the finish should not be blamed on chaptalization (this was boosted less than one degree) and can in fact be easily overlooked.
