BUY THE WINE

Stephen Brook | Broad appley nose with a hint of tropical fruit. Delicate, silky, restrained, but high acidity sustains the palate. Slightly phenolic, withatrace of bitterness, but it’s not excessive. Fresh, evidently, and quite lively, but it’s fairly simple and lacks nuances. Moderate length. | 15.5

Andrew Jefford | Pale to mid-gold in color. Not a hugely articulate aroma; some quiet citrus oiliness. Not unattractive, but not exactly enticing, either. Lean fruit (more cooking apple than citrus here), yet combined with a softly oily, fatty mouthfeel. Slightly strange, I feel. | 11

Stephan Reinhardt | Citrus color. Subtle Riesling aromas on the nose (citrus, ripe yellow apples), with nice ripeness and balance. Well balanced on the palate, full-bodied, concise acidity, appetizing fruit flavors—a little bit too citric in the finish. Quite powerful. | 13.5
