On the citrusy side of things for the Pfalz, where many of the wines lean toward peachiness. Pineapple and passion fruit notes are accented by hints of stuck flint and a vaguely briny character. Although only 12.5% abv, the wine is richly textured on the palate, then turning crisp and refreshing on the finish.——J.C.(12/1/2011)—— 89
