Day 1 a bit too tropical; day 2 botrytis less noticeable & more GV character shines through

Excellent Riesling that on the nose and color totally reminds me of Sauternes but in taste is soooo different. Dry, dry and dry. Wife loves. Floral finish

Petrol, sugar cane and honey aromas. Nice pallet weight with medium viscosity. Enjoyed the rich finish, pleasurable aged Riesling all around.
