"Crisp honeydew melon and lime flavors are etched with salt, slate and smoky mineral tones in this sprightly dry Riesling. It's a sunny, fresh-fruited wine but electric in profile, finishing on zippy streaks of lemony acidity and a lip smacking spicy, earthen finish. Delicious young but should hold through 2026. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"Intensely ripe but pristine cantaloupe and tangerine flavors are freshly concentrated in this dry but juicy crowd-pleaser. Lip-smacking yet invigorating, it finishes on a long, mineral tone. Enjoy now through 2023. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"This summery Riesling wafts of ripe yellow cherries and blossoms. Dry in style with a rich, rounded mouthfeel, it's deeply concentrated with stone fruit flavors accented by hints of waxy lemon and lime skin. It's delicious now for its fragrant, fruity exuberance, but likely to develop its waxy, mineral complexities through 2019-2021."

"Schiefer means "slate," but this wine's stoniness is softer, less severe than that, cushioned under layers of superripe pear and spices that resemble cinnamon or clove and ginger. There's ample weight and richness on the palate despite a sense of dryness, and the wine finishes long, with hints of ripe peach."
