Dirler-Cade, Riesling Belzbrunnen

rich, salty, butterscotch, verging on oxidising. engaging but lacks freshness.

spicy, limey, honey and rose petal notes. salty finish. I'd drink up.

Not sure whether to blame suboptimal storage conditions in the cupboard under the stairs, or whether this is simply past its best - quite oxidised (though not necessarily in a bad way), strong steely backbone but some slightly muddy/butterscotch notes detracting from the overall impression. Quite long, but feels like it could have been better 18 months ago.

Needs decanting! Disappointingly tired on opening, but after an hour, glorious honey, lime, raisins - really quite rich and punchy.

Some impressive qualities but overall too heavy and redolent as much of Gewürztraminer as Riesling perhaps due to the strong kumquat aroma and flavor.

Ce Riesling Dirler-Cadé est un vin plutot sucré,ce n'est pas facile de lui trouvé un bon plat d'accompagnement.Au gout,on remarque la pomme et beaucoup de note floral.Somme toute c'est un bon vin mais il serait encore meilleur avec le bon plat qui l'accompagne.Encore très jeune.
