The nose is fruity and candied, with melon, apple, some sweet citrus. Some sweet cracker also; the finish is fairly quick and the acid (at 14% alcohol) is not really giving it the vivid structure you might expect.——P.G.(9/1/2009)—— 86

There is something off in the nose, a plastic band-aid scent (a type of brett?) that competes with the otherwise pretty floral and citrus notes. Off-dry, it tastes of lemon oil, citrus and cotton candy, but the finish is not entirely clean.——P.G.(12/31/2008)—— 85

This strong, unusual and quite assertive wine bowls you over with its tutti-fruity flavors of bubble gum, juicy fruit, and so on. It is such a unique style for Riesling that it caught me off guard. Perhaps others will favor the big, heavy, rather clumsy fruit more than I, but to me it seems to be a sort of anti-Riesling.——P.G.(3/1/2007)—— 85
