Mineral, bright, zippy, and the RS is balanced elegantly in this fully-formed beauty of a Riesling. Didn't perceive any of the under-ripe qualities that have affected some other 2013s I've tasted.

Delicious. Sweet and a touch savory, with undertones of low-toned herbaceousness. On the finish there are citrusy-pithy notes that carry the sweetness beautifully. Even shitty dudes can pick great wines 😉
