Weingut Johannishof Kabinett Johannisberg 2011 Riesling, $18.69-$22.99, 92 points, appeared as several shades of brass and transitioning clear toward the glass wall.
Red-delicious apple, lemon, with a hint of flowers on the nose were beautiful.
Near medium bodied, a bit creamy, mirrored the aroma onto the palate with subtlety, and represented the lemon more as a meringue than tart fruit.
Finished on the trailing palate, but percolating slate, kumquat, and ginger with a well balanced 9% alcohol gave a lovely climax to an exceptional off dry white wine.
