What reviewers say
“World class Riesling! Starts out with a tropical nose, stone, and a hint of brine on the finish. 3 days later it is still firing on all cylinders with more intense white peach on the nose, lime on the palate and a dry, lingering finish. Savoring every drop!”

How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this bottle against every other wine those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — four stars from someone who hands out fives means something very different from four stars from someone who rarely goes above three. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a star average.
