ryansnyder reviewed Hexamer Quarzit Riesling Nahe 2004 on October 21, 2006

This Riesling from the Nahe region of Germany is named Quarzit for the quartz-laden soils the Riesling vines are grown in. It is off-dry, with perfumed floral notes, baked peach, apricot and a touch of gooseberry, with a minerality that I can only call quartz because of the background information above. This is a wine that will please both dry and sweet Riesling lovers.

Floral and mineral aroma. Strong peach and apple flavors. Slightly dry. Long-lasting lemony finish.
