Tasting - Heinz Eifel Shine

Name:  Heinz Eifel Shine
Variety:  Reisling
Region:  N/A
Country:  Germany
Year:  2012
Price:  $9.95

Winery review:  This drier-styled Riesling is bright, fruity and floral with crisp acidity and clean flavors of apple, pear and peach that compliment its stony minerality and earthy complexity. It serves well as an aperitif and matches a wide variety of foods, like lighter salad dishes, shellfish, cream sauces and also anything with a touch of spice.

My review:  The nose of the white wine has floral, honey, peach, and pear components. On the palate, the wine is in the middle between sweet (yet a little tart) and dry; has a crisp, clean, and refreshing feel to it. Has added earthy, mineral taste.


Food:  Did not have with food
