Good off-dry Riesling, with an excellent crisp and acidic finish, nice mineralogy, but a flat sweet attack. Very good but not complex. Still fresh and 11 years, but there is nothing to gain by further aging. — 4 years ago
Medium sweet with the sugar well integrated with firm acidity and a lively presence of saline minerality. Vibrant with some petrol already evident on the nose. Green apple, linden blossom and a beam of lime keep the wine lively — 8 years ago

Star bright green gold. Yellow apple and honey lead the inviting nose. Bright, tingly acidity -- particularly high for a Mosel -- leads the medium light palate which echoes the nose and adds white peach and honeysuckle. Finish is long and luxe, but it's that phosphorus acidity that really rules. All perceived sweetness is well balanced making this an excellent choice for all fare save for the most fishy white fish (pork tenderloin is a natural, of course). Drink now through 2036. — 3 years ago
Quite fragrant of stone fruit. The taste however started with quite a bit of seeetness than followed with an intense l min flavor mixed with peaches ... peachy lemons is the best way I can describe it. A little too sweet for my taste, but quite a surprising mix of flavors that I found it quite enjoyable.

Wow! Big, rich, some petrol, lots of fruit, glycerin with a long finish. Impressive! — 8 years ago
After only ten years, this one had lost some of its zing; it was a little earthy, but still full of acidity. Paired it with cherry almond cheesecake, and it didn’t have the upfront burst of sweetness to stand up properly. — 2 years ago
So clean and balanced. Not a complex wine, but just a perfect balance of only a mild sweetness followed by minerality and mild acidity. A Golden Mean in all its flavors. White fruit flavors. A paradigm of Mosel Riesling. Extraordinary QPR. — 4 years ago

How to really stump someone in a blind tasting: 1) store a bottle of '69 Weis Leiwener Laurentiuslay Auslese in a box with lots of geuze for ages. 2) allow the wild yeast to enter the bottle and do its thing. 3) wait until you loose 1/4 of the wine through the cork as the pressure builds. 4) open under the table, with a serious 'pop' (to confuse the tasters). 5) serve this miraculously delicious sour 'petillant' (like a cross between a Belgian sour and a very good feinherbst) in riesling glasses. 6) bathe in the glorious confusion that ensues. — 9 years ago
