Tasting note

The customary spices of the Bockstein add a little extra intrigue to the fragrance of ripe yellow fruit. On the palate citrus fruit and spice are partnered by a refreshing touch of gently bitter peel, possibly an herbaceous remnant of spontaneous fermentation. A very restrained measure of residual sugar leaves plenty of room for spices and fruit to shine, a deft touch of acidity completing a successful interpretation of lively Saar Kabinett. Drink 2012-2017. Distinguished. Score - 16.5 (out of 20). (Michael Schmidt, jancisrobinson.com, June 26, 2012)
LCBO
This medium-dry and greenish yellow coloured white showcases a complex nose releasing empyreumatic, spicy, floral, fruity and mineral scents. You will be charmed with this light-bodied wine revealing a full-bodied texture and a medium finish.
SAQ
A steely austerity blends with citrus notes in this wine's bouquet. The palate introduces crisp white fruits such as peaches, pears and apricots, balanced with a touch of lemony acidity. Off-dry, Riesling is a perfect pairing with Indian cuisine such as seafood curry.
