Medium clear lemon-gold appearance. Sweet citrus and mineral on the nose with the floral-petrol quality typical of the varietal. High acidity on the palette; a nice bite balanced by medium honey-pineapple sweetness. A little one-dimensional, but quite drinkable. See Weingut Selbach-Oster. $34 at Kitsilano Wine Cellar.
