DRY RIESLINGS

Dr 'L' Riesling QbA 2002, Dr Loosen (Mosel) 14 Drink 2003-2004
£5.99 Sainsbury, Oddbins

Very, very pale. Water white. Light nose, then pure Riesling flavours. Very, very slightly slack. Basic essence of Mosel.

Wachenheimer Riesling 2002 'Single Village', JL Wolf (Pfalz) 15 Drink 2003-2005
£8.99 Philglas & Swiggot, Great Western Wines

Broad, clear, confident, peppery nose. Brisk. Almost abrasive. Not especially intense.

Forster Riesling 2002 'Single Village', JL Wolf (Pfalz) 16 Drink 2005-2007
£8.99 Hicks & Don

Mineral nose and definite weight, but quite unfurled on the palate. Slightly astringent at the moment. Needs time.
