The 2018 Dry Riesling comes in with four grams per liter of residual sugar, six of total acidity and 11% alcohol. In bottle almost 90 days when tasted, this was in pretty good shape. A bit of spritz (they sometimes bottle with a little residual CO2) blows off quickly to allow a dry and tense Riesling to emerge. Lean, crisp and rather acidic, this has a hint of green apple and herbs on the end to go with the enlivening fruit. This is always a wine with lots of acidity, and in this vintage, it is no different. The juicy finish is terrific for its grip and its length. However, I'm not quite as sure the fruit is equally impressive, although it's not bad. While I admired this wine's energy most of all, the fruit needs to prove it can develop more character. I won't be surprised if that answer becomes clearer in the spring of 2020 than it is now.
This has many virtues if you like them intense, but let's be a little conservative for the moment. In the meanwhile, the price isn't too daunting, and this has a lot to offer no matter what.
