Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
a lot of shoe polish this time, limestone in the rain, fresh walnuts (the sherry?), and mild curry. Not really Riesling, the jury's still out. With water: ah, now it might suggest a rather petroly Riesling, more Alsatian, if not Mosellan. Sorry, dear Rheingau
restaurant Palate
oily, mineral, with lots of shoe polish again and marmalade. Marzipan, the sort found in Mozart Kugeln. With water: orange zest, more marzipan
timer Finish
rather long, with a beautiful salinity but also hints of walnut cake
