Pale yellow in colour with apple-green hints. The nose is intensely aromatic, with classic Riesling lime, grapefruit and white flowers. The palate is dry, medium to full and fresh. The citrus and floral fruit character lasts through the palate onto the crisp refreshing finish that is a defining characteristic of this vintage.
Excellent with spicy food.
The 2008 Klevner is bright lemon-yellow in colour, with a fresh, clean nose of white flowers and peaches. The palate is medium-full bodied, with ripe, stone fruit intensity and an elegant citrus length.
This wine has a bright, stony fruit aroma that is drenched in peaches and apricots. It is medium weight but the apricot richness has a massive impact and a palate coating texture. The fruit has good persistence and leads to a long, drying finish.There is also a stony purity that's characteristic of Riesling from the Pfalz and it carries through on the palate. Excellent richness and solid structure make this full and surprisingly powerful. It has good length, with a crisp dry finish.
Delicate floral notes on the nose and relatively restrained. The palate hits you with fleshy stone fruit flavours of apricot and white peach, with just a suggestion of funky mushrooms influenced by the natural yeasts from the vineyard.
