Aaagh, the `M` word but this time from the Nahe!

Brilliant Riesling from the Nahe region. 12.5% alc, $33 Cdn, this 2010 Emrich-Schonleber “Mineral” Riesling Trocken flew off the shelf after a very recent German tasting downtown. 3 bottles of this wine will be my pay for helping out at the store!

If one likes their riesling dry, crisp with mineral tones this one is for you. I did not find it too acidic and some sweetness pulls through the immense structure here. I think it has a good 4 year window so will put aside to see what developes?
Pungent nose, crisp, peach, apricot, pineapple. Initial entry thought was racy, long finish, citrus, lime. One punter mentioned slate and a salty finish but that could have been the nibbles served. There is a lot of fruit here alongside the mineral tones and it all appears in perfect balance. Hopefully some forumites will be able to access in their area.
