Schoenheitz 2004 Riesling Linsenberg (Alsace) – Brilliant green leaves – mint, makrut lime, and perhaps even a touch of sage – with vibrant intensity and a core of naked steel. Grows in intensity for the better part of an hour, then starts a long, slow fade. Vibrant, powerful, dry, and balanced. I’d be very interested to see how this ages. (4/09)
