Tasting - Peter Mertes Platinum Riesling

Name: Peter Mertes Platinum Riesling 2014 Magnum
Variety: Riesling
Region: Germany
Country: Germany
Year: 2014
Price: $18.00

Shop Review: "Light-bodied slightly sweet white wine; medium pale slightly greenish yellow. Inviting fresh white peach aroma and flavors. Easy to drink and not complicated, but what's there is very pleasant, and flavors develop in the glass." ~Winery notes

My Review: The color of this wine had a yellow-green color and had a slightly acidic aroma. Upon tasting, the slight sweetness was apparent right away. The body was very light and had a crisp finish. Additional flavors I was able to find seemed to be close to pomegranate combined with peaches.  I felt this wine was very pleasant to taste by itself.
