Critic Review: http://www.marketviewliquor.com/product/rudi-wiest-mosel-riesling-wine-750ml.html#
My Review: The nose on this wine made me nervous that I was about to drink a sweet and fruity Riesling since it was enamored in pineapple. That's all I could smell, pineapple. Oh boy. The taste... a little spicey, great acidity, smooth mouthfeel and definitely some of that pineapple. I finally experienced a great Riesling from Germany. I had this by itself, I didn't want my peach rings from 7-11 to ruin the experience. 

Bonus shot: Check out the light golden color.
