Odinstal Riesling Muschelkalk trocken 2016

White
Pfalz, Germany

WineSaint

Vivid white grapefruit, crushed shell, and wet limestone on the nose, immediate and focused. Lean and mineral-driven on the palate, the Muschelkalk soils leaving their mark in a chalky, almost saline backbone that runs alongside bright citrus from start to finish. The acidity is firm and well-defined, carrying the wine through to a long, briny close with impressive persistence.
