Community Tasting Notes 82

  April 2, 2024 - AP #11-06. A bit disappointing considering the producer and vineyard, I remember liking this a lot more several years back. It's still quite delicious with lots of ripe Mosel fruit and florality, a faint honeyed tinge to the aromatics, and plenty of more savoury developing/developed notes. But it also comes across somewhat soft and extremely sweet, lacking the crispness and definition I regularly find from Himmelreich, and the finish is a bit odd - showing a faintly bitter tinge, not unlike what I find in some drier wines with botrytis.

  October 28, 2023 - Lovely deep fruit. Darkens a bit in the glass. To my taste this is at peak as it’s getting soft on the finish

  September 29, 2023 - Goes fantastically with spicy food. Still quite dominant in terms of primary flavors, suspect this bottle could go (should go?) even longer.

  July 17, 2023 - When I opened this, I was ready to denounce it as yet another German bottle of riesling-flavored syrup. But it’s far too good to be so cynical. The wine is too sweet, to be sure, and the acidity and alcohol body are inadequate. But the flavors—from petrol and slate to mango and rambutan—are divine.
