Wonderful petrol, white flowers and fresh peaches. Bone dry. Lime, green apple palate. Crazy acidity. Love it!

Amazing Riesling with complexity and hints of spice from a bit of aging that will make you spend some time with this wine. The backbone of racy acidity takes no prisoners.

A really great sparkling from the okv. Very balanced, off dry, but with the prominent acidity found in almost all the tantalus wines. A good choice when you get engaged.

Drank young but showing extremely well.

The wine may be austere to some individuals, but I'm a sucker for lemony acidity.
