Very good example of fruity linden tree style Riesling from Moravia, the bouquet is very intense linden tree and apricot with quite dense and oily mouth feel with still good acidity and dry mouth profile. It is heavier in the mid palate and rather food style. You can compare it to the same vineyard, but 2010 vintage tasted in September 2013.
