Wine Review:
2004 Leonard Kreusch Riesling

Winery: Leonard Kreusch
Brand/Type: Riesling
Vintage: 2004
Country: Germany
Region: Mosel – Saar – Ruwer
Alcohol content: 9.5%

This a middle of the road Riesling that seems geared toward neither impressing nor offending your palate or pocketbook. No classification is declared on the stereotypical blue bottle so we assume it is a blended wine using whatever combination picking that the vineyard(s?) offered at the time. If pressed, an Auslese would be my classification of this bottle. It’s a semi-sweet wine with the usual fruity Riesling attributes, somewhat mineral, orange, and apricot.
