Description
A little bit of misnomer here with the “reserve” branding – Lenko claims they used to make two Rieslings, then they realized the reserve sold out faster than the regular every year, so everything became reserve. But barring that little hiccup, it is a very tasty offering that has ageing potential up the yin-yang. Lemon and peach greet the nose, while peach, apricot and citrus dance playfully on the tongue ... sharp acid makes this one a little puckering in the mouth, but also gives it great ageing potential. So, lie it on its side for awhile to give it time to settle down a little. Very tasty and a good finish makes this a fine offering and with the summer coming you’ll want a few of these kicking around.
