Wine Review: This straw yellow colored Riesling from Nik Weis eye opening. It opens with a lime zest and white grapefruit bouquet with hints of flint stone. On the palate, this wine is light bodied with plus acidity. The mouthfeel is zesty, bracing, and very bright. The flavor profile is a white grapefruit and white peach blend with notes of lime and saline. I also detected hints of granny smith apple, ginger, and white pepper. The finish is off-dry, and its flavors and tangy acidity stick around for quite some time. While this wine will not be for everyone. If you like a very fresh Riesling, this one is for you. I would pair it with swordfish kabobs. Enjoy – Ken
Winemaker Notes: The St. Urbans-Hof Estate Riesling "From Old Vines" represents everything you can expect from a fine Riesling from Germany’s renowned Mosel Valley. It has the elegance and freshness that Riesling is known for plus the depth and finesse that only wines from old gnarly vines can have.
