Domaine Ostertag Gewurztraminer Les Jardins 2017 sku_2202100 with hints of black oliveThis medium bodied and rather round dry Riesling has an attractive citrus, spice and herbal character. Shows nice depth. The finish is crisp but harmonious enough for this to slip down rather easily. A rather shy nose leads to a slender palate where lemon zest, chervil and a riper notion of red apple combine to make a very honest, dry and refreshing wine. A clean, earthy freshness lingers long.
