While fairly neutral on the nose with subtle aromas of apple and lemon, this off-dry Riesling is lush and fruity on the palate with flavors of white grapefruit and quince jelly. It's straightforward, but finishes elegantly with a reverberating tea-leaf astringency.

Shows a weaker side of the 2006 vintage, with an overly broad mouthfeel and a certain lack of precision, but still boasts ripe apple and melon flavors.
