From the bottle:
A crisp, fruity and refreshing Riesling from the mineral-rich slate soil of the Mosel Valley. It is an ideal companion to mildly spicy stir fry dishes and Indian curries or simply serve as an aperitif.
8.5% Alcohol
The 2018 Dr. L Riesling begins with pleasing aromas of pear, green apple, lemon, lime, peach, a touch of tropical fruit and a little bit of petrol. Upon taking a sip you are greeted by tons of vibrant sweet fruit. Lively acidity helps balance it out but it's still quite sweet. It features similar flavors to the nose but they are more tart when tasting. It ends with a sweet, long finish that leaves you tasting the honey on your lips for quite some time. This is a refreshing one at only 8.5% alcohol.
