This is a medium-bodied, off-dry Riesling. It’s very fruit-forward, verging on tropical, with hints of banana and guava in the mix, balanced by brighter, more pineappley notes. Drink now for its exuberant youth, or try in 2–3 years for a more settled, spicy flavor profile.

Although boasting slightly honeyed aromas of pear and melon, this is a dry wine, just fully ripe. It’s medium in body, with a dusting of gingery spice that gives it extra interest on the finish. Drink now.

This shows a slightly smoky or fumé character on the nose, then melon and citrus notes. It’s on the lean, zippy side of things, without any overt tropical fruit or herbaceousness yet ending on a lime-like note.
