 Tasted by SteveHyde on 6/19/2018 & rated 91 points: Very good wine, but not at what I would call Grand Cru quality. Layered and balanced, with dense, resin-y mouthfeel, floral, honey and almond, well-structured. But. Lacks the vibrancy and angularity I associate with Riesling. Softer, more plush. A different approach to Riesling that is less to my taste than its counterparts just a little north. (1056 views)
 Tasted by FamilyLarsson on 3/31/2015 & rated 92 points: Helt underbar doft av petroleum, sommaräng med vita blommor och mogen vit stenfrukt. Fin frisk syra och en underbar frisk fruktighet. En riktigt bra 2003:a. (2077 views)
 Tasted by tendring on 12/22/2014 & rated 92 points: This is a wonderful wine.
The nose is a mixture of fruit and diesel notes of the most inviting quality.
I was expecting a distinctly off dry wine, but this is so more aptly called dry. There's a rich fruitiness, an elegance and opulence that make this a star of the 2003 vintage. (1773 views)
 Tasted by Tavastgatan on 12/20/2014 & rated 92 points: L'Inedit, the unexpected. What ever you expect this delivers. The most refined petroleum nose ever. Stunning. Some traces of the extreme vintage in the mouth. Lovely all the same. (2053 views)
 Tasted by winemaker on 7/4/2014 & rated 94 points: Stunning gorgeous wine consumed as a remembrance for Laurence Faller who passed away a few weeks ago. She will be missed. This wine is a wonderful tribute to her commitment to quality. Most of the residual sugar here has been absorbed. Lovely minerality. Viscous with a long finish. (1834 views)
 Tasted by DemeesterWim on 11/21/2010 & rated 89 points: Very special nose, petrolé and citrus, overal very aromatic. Crispy acids and medium aftertaste. Lovely. (2495 views)
 Tasted by LeechDogg on 7/30/2008: Nice balance of sweet and acidity. Not the driest Riesling I've drank, but darn good. (1875 views)
 Tasted by LeechDogg on 5/31/2008 & rated 87 points: Slightly golden in color, with a bit of nuttiness. Maybe just an oxidized bottle, but I was not impressed. Seemed like there was a nice, dry Riesling under there. (1858 views)
 Tasted by MFong on 4/28/2005: Domaine Weinbach Wine Masterclass (World Gourmet Summit 2005) (The Sentosa Resort & Spa, Singapore): Gold. Concentrated nose of flowers, citrus and petrol. Off dry with crisp acidity and silky on the palate. Long elegant finish. (2358 views)
