WTN: Ojai Riesling KickOnRanch '21....(short/boring)

Tried this Ojai last night:
1. OjaiVnyd Riesling KickOnRanch/SantaBarbaraCnty (13.0%) Helen & Adam Tolmach/OakView 2021: Med.gold color; fairly floral/R/mango/bit pineapple some mineral/Mosel valve oil some c-c/spicy bit complex quite attractive nose; rather tart/tangy totally dry some pineapple fairly floral/R/mango light mineral/Mosel valve oil some Mosel-like/stony flavor; very long/lingering bit Mosel valve oil/mineral finish that tracks flavor; quite an attractive Mosel-like R that should be great in 5-10 yrs; doesn't have the steely/minerality of a Mosel but is quite a good expression of Calif R.
_____________________________
More tittiedroop from TheBloodyPulpit:
1. I have always liked Adam's Rieslings. They have the ability to age remarkably well. Blind you would not misrake it for a Mosel. But it resembles one in style. Comes from a very sandy vnyd NW of LosAlamos going out towards Casmalia. A very good R vnyd.
