- TheEngineer - 03-13-2005 Another from the very ripe 2003 vintage, M-S-R, and one that I've never heard of (though that for me would be the majority of wines... [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img] ) This one was rather nice. Nice aromatic nose of apricot, green apple and a zestiness. Light pale hay color. Simple and clean with a nice minerality to it. Ripe and plump to be sure but there is a nice acidity (almost tart in nature) to keep everything in check. Medium length finish with a little bit of a dip in flavour after the initial taste. $20.99 per btl and 7.5% ABV. Acidity is higher than in several other 2003 Rieslings that I've had but balance is still good. Paired with Salmon tonight. [This message has been edited by TheEngineer (edited 03-13-2005).] |
