Leitz Riesling Rudesheimer Magic Mountain trocken 2017

Lime zest, wet slate, and white peach open things up, with a floral lift that carries through the glass. Tightly-knit acidity gives the wine its backbone, while time on lees adds a quiet, almost creamy weight to the mid-palate — enough to fill it out without blunting the wine's natural drive. There's a faint textural grip from skin contact that keeps everything honest. Focused and precise, with the kind of mineral edge that makes Rheingau trocken worth paying attention to.
