April 7, 2024 - Amber color, rich apricot and marmalade on the nose and palate. Light oxidation.

April 6, 2024 - My last bottle, unfortunately this showed deep bronze in colour, and while it didn't taste oxidized, it was definitely poxed in some way. It was a shell of what is should have been.

October 12, 2023 - This (half) bottle is showing its age. Golden color, fruits are somewhat stewed, a bit fat. Disappointing.

3/13/2009 (link)(Trimbach Riesling Cuvee Frederic Emile) This is a wine I have always loved but have not drank enough of it. It is one of the first dry Rieslings I latched onto. This was supposed to be a great vintage and it was. Petrol, lemon, curd-like aromas on the precise and steely nose. Palate was lemony and rich but with a lovely austere mineral streak. Great acidity that was there from the beginning to the finish. Electric. Did not greatly improve as it remained open but no need as this sung from first sip to last.
