I quite like Welsh Riesling, especially from Mikulov area and this is a good example of very nicely drinkable balanced and properly aged WR. It has absolute dominance of ripe (not green) red apple with interesting touch of some complex flavor resembling walnuts, which stays in the mount after you swallow it.
