March 31, 2010 - Golden color. Lovely nose of apple, pear, honey and a slight touch of petrol. More of the same on the palate with some minerality coming through along with great acid and a smooth, sweet finish. This wine is holding up quite well and should still age gracefully. Too bad I do not have any more in the cellar.

February 20, 2009 - Petrol creeping in, the acidity is starting to fade a touch, but the fruit ever present. Great price from winebid on textbook aged Riesling. Better to pair with food as it is drinking now.

November 30, 2008 - Similar tasting notes as previous bottle but with less honey notes and more minerality. Very nice aged riesling.

June 8, 2008 - Wonderful aged riesling. Great golden color. Nose of green apples, honeysuckle and pears. Surprisingly no detectable petrol. Incredible mouth watering acidity leads me to believe this wine still has many many years ahead of it. Somewhat of an oily texture on the mouthfeel. Loads of green apple on the palate. Great finish. Terrific riesling and a steal for the $20 I paid for it.
