1997 vintage. Picked up the last case of this for a song. Still a bit of petrol influence afoot. Overt Spätlese sweetness mostly dissipated so giving off more old-school Kabinett vibes. Delicious. 05.21.25. — a year ago

Nice with the bright Vietnamese shrimp/pig ear/carrot/daikon salad, and ground beef rolls wrapped in piper lolot leaves! — 5 years ago

The Basic QbA Riesling from a good grower should always be a very good wine that also ages well. Case in point here. This 13-year old has another decade of aging potential. I believe the vineyard village here is Wehlen. The fruit is fresh and would be convincing as a feinherb, and the balanced structure is appropriately firm. — 6 years ago

Erinomainen, puolikuiva Riesling. Hyvä hinta-laatu suhde. Sopii seurustelujuomaksi ja kala- tai kanaruoan kanssa nautittavaksi. — 6 years ago

Nose smells of pears and limes. Color is light golden yellow. Taste is citrus with oranges, limes, and grapefruit. Slightly apple crisp and slight hint of minerals. A pleasant dry finish. — 9 years ago

I’m getting a real taste for these delicious aged rieslings. This is the second bottle of this vintage I’ve had, and man - it was rocking. It’s in such a perfect place right now. Ripe acidity balanced with the sweetness of honey, caramel apple, brûlée’d peach, kerosene and lilac flower. I’m making a mental note to buy more for the cellar. Despite the wait, these are too good to rob your future self of their pleasures. Yum. — 6 years ago

So much for “classic” vintages. This silky-textured, Rubenesque beauty from a hot vintage offers tremendous enjoyment at 17+ years. Versatile with main course and dessert. — 5 years ago

Strong aroma of petrol, asphalt. Approaching dessert wine territory, awfully sweet and 7.5% ABV only! Hint of honey and stewed apricots, but not as much acidity as I might like for such a sweet wine. Tad off balance. — 7 years ago

Tuoksua hallitsee päärynä ja sitrushedelmät. Maku on keskitäyteläinen ja hapokas, hieman petrolinen, mineraalinen ja kypsän sitruksinen. — 10 years ago
