WTN: 2006 Leitz Rudesheimer Klosterlay Riesling, Rheingau, Germany

3-oz. pour at Gramercy Tavern, NYC
Very pale lemon color. Nice delicate white stonefruit nose. Slightly citric also. More white peach than citrus on the palate. Glides down smoothly and easily and too swiftly. Tastes a little sweeter than I would expect from a kabinett. I would say Leitz is still on a very successful run of vintages judging just from this one example. Delightful!

Excellent terminology, I know precisely what you mean. Thanks for the note on a 2006er Rheingau!
