December 29, 2022 - golden yellow, at peak drinking and doesnt seem to benefit from further ageing.. no petrol/TDN, and very integrated botrytis, what is really remarkable is the intensity of golden/dried lemon, peach and apricot tones, its one of the most intense riesling expressions Ive encountered with perfectly balanced acid. its alive, thrilling and up for pairing against the most rich foods, truffles, rib roast, and chinese noodles, along with sashimi

November 23, 2016 - Crushed rocks, lemon sherbet, sour cream. Big, bright and electric. Relatively low acidity. Distant hints of white peppers, hazelnut and old foudres. Really outstanding stuff, apparently from a cold and wet cellar.

July 19, 2010 - Moderate yellow with some green. Compelling, urgent aromas of peach, herbs, and lemon. Full, ripe, but buttressed by tremendous acid and minerality. As opposed to 2 years ago, now mature petrol secondary aromas really blossom. Fantastic Riesling.
