Tasting - Heinz Eifel Shine Riesling

I did not pair this wine with food
Name: Heinz Eifel Shine Riesling
Variety: Riesling
Region: N/A
Country: Germany
Year: N/A
Price: $9.95

Professional Notes: This drier-styled Riesling is bright, fruity and floral with crisp acidity and clean flavors of apple, pear and peach that compliment its stony minerality and earthy complexity. It serves well as an aperitif and matches a wide variety of foods, like lighter salad dishes, shellfish, cream sauces and also anything with a touch of spice.
My Review: This wine had a strong nose and a weak taste. It had hints of acid on the nose, and tasted of plump fruits. It was fairly mellow for a Riesling, and I enjoyed it. I would recommend it.
