Thorle, Saulheimer Kalkstein Riesling, Rheinhessen

Pale lemon colour. High medium and youthful nose with ripe green apples, white peach, ripe lemon, chalk, slate and wet stone. Medium taste of ripe green apples, white peach, ripe lemon, chalk, slate and wet stone. Long and dry finish. High acidity. Medium body. A very good Riesling Trocken. Drink now or over the next couple of years. Goes well with fish or shellfish.

Ok, ok - quite good and by far my favorite from Thorle (the first non-Spatburgunder). It has that smokey quality on the nose. Wooly, vegetal, hint of whistle clean lemon counter cleaner. The mouth is vibrant with 2.5 times the acidity you're expecting. Hangs on the tip of your tongue for an extra dedicated couple of seconds.

香气甜，苹果和桃子等果味为主，带有些石灰矿物。喝着有一定的酚类物质，整体有紧致感，微咸，果味适中。88
