Craig Kuziemsky rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Pear and tropical fruit aromas with pineapple, lemon, spice and stone notes on the palate. Nice minerality and a crisp acidic finish.
Sharon Lécuyer rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Aromas of peaches and honey. Medium-bodied, off dry with tastes of yellow delicious apple and a lingering buttery but tart finish. Not a 'hit you over the head' with sweetness. I enjoyed this! I would pair with an arugula salad with white wine vinager-based dressing and mandarin oranges.
rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

Fresh red apples, toasted nuts, apricot on the nose. A delicious consistent Riesling from Alsace that is great value. Flavours of apple and pear with a touch of honey and lemon drizzled on top. Pair with chicken - roasted or prepared with curry.
Douglas McMillan rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Tart peach and apple aromas with a touch of white pepper, white flowers, and lime zest. Medium-high acidity with a slight softness in the mouth and a tart yellow apple and lemon taste. Fantastic example of Riesling.
Jane Staples rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Still my go-to Riesling after several years. Delicate, well-balanced and versatile. Pretty peach, white floral, citrus and petrol aromas with a dry, finely structured mouthfeel and citrus lemon finish. Great value.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
