2021 Keller Riesling Limestone

This freshly dry, bright golden green Riesling has a delicate and irresistible nose, with passion fruit, white flowers, honeyed citrus, and dried honey moving in and out of the foreground, alternating with white peaches, pink grapefruit, lemon zest, and a fleeting suggestion of sweet wood smoke as the nose evolves in the glass. On the palate, the wine is a juicy explosion, shimmering with a voltaic tension between delicate sweetness and electrifying citric acidity from apple and lime. But you never notice either sweetness or acidity separately. Pure flavors of green apple, white cranberry, mandarin, and stone fruit, all seasoned with palpable saline minerality, lead to a long, emphatic finish, with plenty of fresh acidity, depth, and cut.
