"Dr. L 2021 Riesling is a superb value Mosel Qualitätswein under $16. Fragrant with lemon pudding, ripe apple and peach jam aromas, the wine is off-dry, medium-bodied and mouth-filling with apple, peach, tropical fruit, lemon meringue and spring rain minerality on the palate. So good now with spicy pork ribs from the grill or try it with smoked-salmon Bennies."
89/100

Wine Folly
This wine was particularly strong with the lime flavor listed on page 158 of the book. It also had a strong green apple flavor, which is shown on the same page. though it's from Germany, it seems to match up more closely with the flavor profile of a French Riesling, as described on page 159 of the book.
Personal Review
This wine had a fruit-forward aroma and flavor dominated by green apple and lime. There was a hint of bitterness on the smell that was replaced by a bit of sweetness on the flavor. The wine's color was also remarkably light. I thought it was pretty nice, though I've tasted a Riesling or two that I liked more at around this price range.
