Excellent intensity. Great structure.

Forstmeister Geltz-Zilliken 2010 Saarburger Rausch Riesling Kabinett
Medium-light, bright yellow.
Nose > Lemon/lime-oil, apricot, peach-kernal, Lemon-drops.
Some SO2 still to lose.
Pungent citrus-pith, strawberries & cream.
Palate > Lemon/lime-flesh, apricot, meyer-lemon, pink-grapefruit.
Really electric tart-citrus fruit, starfruit, cactus-fruit, tart-cherry juice, gooseberry.
Raspingly sweet-tart pure Riesling fruit with slatey, mineral-infused tart-nectarine skin.
Great, high, ripe acidity.
Medium plus intensity.
This needs time to harmonize, & especially to absorb the SO2.
Will be a beautiful bottle, but really not ready. Give this at least til 2014 to settle down.
