The bouquet smells largely of citrus fruits with hints of peaches and apricots. The wine is dominated by citrus and mineral flavours complimented by floral notes. A fairly light and crisp body with a silky, mid-dry finish and a slight acidic end. I wouldn't say that the wine is as balanced as it could be. I found that the acidity overpowered all of the other flavours which is too bad. Overall it was okay, but I'd probably pay a little bit more and get a really good Piesporter.

In the meantime, let's check out what the Japanese are up to.

Peace ooouuut!
