| Likeness | Riesling acidity and a slight mineral finish give the sweetness a recognizably wine-like balance. | More wine than juice — Riesling fruit and acid carry the glass. The must and concentrate still show as sweetness and softness, so it is less dry and less structured than a traditional Mosel. | Recognizable Riesling fruit and acidity, with a mineral-saline close, give the glass a familiar varietal character. |
