July 27, 2023 - In a perfect spot right now! I think the balance between freshness and juicy fruit on the one hand and more complex notes from the ageing on the other hand is perfect right now.
Beautiful golden colour.
Aromas of honey, quince and citrus fruit with just a hint of riesling petroleum.
The palate is filled with juicy fruit, both a touch of apple fruit but mostly citrus fruit - oranges and mandarins. Honey and a hint of saffron. There is nice acidity, mineral notes and also a creamy texture to the palate which is really nice.
July 23, 2023 - Overall, a fantastic Riesling! The wine has a great balance and complexity, supplemented by a long lasting finish. Can be aged for a really long time, but it is already showing well now.
Colour: deep gold.
Acidity: high.
Texture: medium +.
Aromas: honey, apricot, peach, minerality, and white flowers.
July 4, 2021 - Excellent
April 9, 2018 - Consistent with previous notes
August 29, 2016 - No doubt horribly young, but this is so tasty. Light and gentle on the palate. Deft touch of sweetness and a bit salty. Touch of Apple. Lovely minerality. So easy to enjoy. A real treat.
June 21, 2015 - Another stunning bottle of this. The energy and life in it is something to behold. Lot's of complexity and interest. Of course this is young and primary, but it's ohh so delicious
March 31, 2015 - Holy shitballs, this is stunning!
Amazing balance between acidity and sweetness, fruit and mineral, richness and lightness of being. Just close you eyes and smile, life is good!!!
January 17, 2015 - Great site from a terrific producer, tropical, saline, slate dust aromas, palate had georgous depth of fruit and viscosity could have sipped it all night
September 15, 2014 - This is probably the best Auslese out of 20 or so I tasted this evening from the same vintage.
The liquid is almost clear at this early stage. We can look forward to following this up for another 20-30 years. Tasted alongside the the Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel. Both are stunning.
