Wine Tasting: 2014 Selbach-Oster Riesling feinherb

Tonight's wine comes at the recommendation of a G+ wine friend of mine (+Margret P.) I haven't tried too many Rieslings, but the ones I've had. I've been quite impressed with.  Margret gave me a few recommendations, and this was one of them.

Tasting Notes:
Straw in color.  Aromas of citrus fruit, honeydew and rubber.  Flavors of Limon, light grapefruit, and pear.  A slightly highened acidity, though it works well with the vivid citrus structure.  It's smooth even with the acidiy and has a bit more body that I expected.

Final Thoughts:
Almost Sauvignon Blanc like, yet it still has the Riesling character.  Very interesting, and very good!
