Tasting notes
Humbrecht's 1998 Riesling revealed powerful mineral scents intermingled with lively pears and apples in its rich aromas. Medium-to-full-bodied and revealing gorgeous definition as well as purity, it is an elegant, awesomely focused offering. Loads of minerals, stones, and white fruit flavors are found in its expressive personality as well as throughout its huge finish. Projected maturity: 2003-2014+. Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel (510) 524-1524.
