Tasting - Heinz Eifel Shine Riesling


Name: Heinz Eifel Shine Riesling
Variety: Riesling
Region: N/A
Country: Germany
Year: 2010
Price: $8.95

Critic Review: Flint and mineral notes accent pineapple and lime aromas, while on the palate, the wine shows plenty of ripe, citrusy fruit flavors.Tangy acids on the long finish provide balance.

My Review: This riesling had an offensive taste of musky, old boxes that have been in an attic for 50 years.  Along with this musky dust flavor, there was also a sweet, grass vegetal flavor.  While I thought this wine was a little funky, I didn't hate it!

I did not taste this wine with food
