I may have sampled this when it was past its prime but it was totally one dimensional. Lacked acid or tannins or bark or bite or aromas or pretty much anything interesting. Super disappointed from a $35 bottle. — a day ago

9.1

Solid dry Mosel Spatlese Riesling. Balanced citrus, slate, and petrol aromas. Heavy mouth feel. Not as complex as others I've had recently, but I'm biased having sampled many reserve and Alsatian grand crus. — a month ago

9.5

Highly perfumed amalgamation of guava, honeyed peaches, marzipan, and some crazy exotic tea blend of roses, jasmine, lavender Earl Grey, and lapsang souchong. Outstanding. — 2 months ago

9.3

Dried berries, strawberry preserves, black pepper, espresso, bittersweet chocolate, and llicorella. Tastes of rose petal infused black tea, raspberry preserves, strawberry jam. — 16 days ago

Bananas foster, Christmas fruitcake, with balanced gun smoke aromas. Much fruitier and more concentrated than the Warres. Fantastic. — a month ago

Trummer Ried Obegg Sauvignon Blanc (2019)

Very unusual single vineyard Sauv Blanc. Mineral driven like a Sancerre but less racy. Gooseberry, passion fruit, white currant, and underripe white grapefruit. Complex bouquet that extends to the palette. Good acidity. — 2 months ago

9.3

This could probably benefit from some aging but drinking well now. Elegant aromas of dried cherries, fruit compote, spices, cocoa, and hints of exotic woods. — 22 days ago

9.0

Not as rich as the Hermitage, but still very good. Floral aromas, orchard fruit, minerals. Nice weight and finish. — a month ago

9.3

Berries, licorice, winter spices (nutmeg, ginger, cardamom, cloves, allspice), vanilla bean, toasted hazelnuts, and hints of dill. Awesome complexity for the price range. Killer QPR. — a month ago

8.9

Classic example of Pinot Bianco. Spiced pear, raw almonds, fresh raspberries, dolostone, and hints of mango and passion fruit. — 2 months ago
