A superstar in this new vintage, this wonderfully concentrated and well-delineated wine offers precise fruit flavors of etched and sculpted peach, apricot and melon in perfect proportion. There is ample acidity under the 19 g/l residual sugar.

Oddly, among a nice selection of Chehalem Rieslings, this seems disjointed, with sour flavors and other components that don't quite knit together. Finished with a screwcap closure, there's no bad cork to point the finger at. Maybe more bottle age will help to pull it together.
