Very expressive entry of lively Kafir lime, grapefruit and cider. Nose of white flowers, gooseberry, lemon and grapefruit. A touch of minerals and wet earth. Complete balance. Some glycerine and tree sap with emerging apple and pear joining the citrus on the crisp finish.

Tasted at the masterclass at the 2015 Canberra International Riesling Challenge. Lifted nose of citrus and grapefruit with mineral notes. Touch broad on entry into the palate, but there is a lovely balance of citrus fruits plus some kaffir lime leaf and good length. Second in the bracket of five wines tasted.

Very clear reflective surface with a slight green tinge. Green apples and gooseberries on the nose. Very tart and very pleasant pink lady apples mixed with lemon and lime citrus notes, all of which extends into a lengthy and enjoyable finish. Light and easy drinking, but with good energy and very crisp acids.

Sharp, bright fall apple orchard on the nose, crisp pear up front, mildly acidic citrus on the back end. Finishes clean and dry. Wonderful.

MICHAEL's GENUINE FOODS - Summer of Riesling (Michael's Genuine Foods, 130 NE 40th St, Miami, FL) : 2nd course. Pleasant good acidity. Not memorable.

Slightly floral on the nose, white flowers, with citrus notes. This has a steely acidity, first and foremost, with grapefruit, tart lemon flavors, starkly acidic, with a lingering finish, and a wine that would be better but for the fact that the fruit trails the acidity, at least at this point.
