Wine Review: This light yellow wine opens with a very inviting floral like bouquet. On the palate, the wine is creamy, smooth and has lemon like flavors with hints of iced tea. The finish is clean and refreshing. This wine would serve you well as an evening opening aperitif. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: The Graben shows the typical Mosel slatey-minerality underlying an opulent blend of kiwi, mango and ripe red apples. The tropical fruit driven palate exhibits a refreshing interplay with tropical limes and grapefruit, all wrapped up in a mouth filling medium style.
