Tasting - Heinz Eifel Shine Riesling


Name: Heinz Eifel Shine Riesling
Variety: 100% Riesling
Region: Pfalz
Country: Germany
Year: 2010
Price: $8.95

Winery 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 wine smells like lemon Tilex bathroom cleaner. Not the most appealing scent. This is one sour, sour Riesling. There a lot of lemon, it's a little soapy, and it's just waaaaaaay tangy. This is the most sour, tangy wine I've ever had and I did not like it at all. I can't imagine anyone who would like that much acid in their wine.
