  November 21, 2023 - 7.5% abv. Nice tension between lemon lime acid and sweetness. Petrol, citrus, honey, ripe pineapple. Med plus in mouth, med plus finish and length. This is fun to drink now, with the right food, and will improve for several decades. Very good.

  July 12, 2023 - Normally, I would never open a wine like this so early, but there was some seepage which had me concerned and therefore decided to sacrifice this bottle, figuring it was better to drink now and enjoy, rather than hope it wasn't a serious issue and be disappointed down the road.
  
  Very pretty on the nose with white peach and white pineapple along with minerals the dominant notes. The wine was so young, those notes were almost crystalline in their presentation. Medium bodied (7.5% ABV) white peach upfront, with other white orchard fruits as hints now; lots of complexity still to be revealed. Adds white pineapple and white mango through the middle along with more intense white/yellow peach and a mix of additional tropical notes behind. These are concealed at present by very good acidity and excellent tart notes/citrus qualities. The wine already shows richness through the middle body, kept in balance by the structural notes behind. Mineral and floral notes through the finish. I think the seepage took a bit of this wine's electricity, power and depth, but it was in no way flawed, simply slightly more advanced for this age. This wine is going to be something quite special with time. As much as I love young rieslings, there's too much potential to open this right now. You'd be cheating yourself out of the heights this wine will one day summit. I'll wait on my next bottle until 2026, probably longer.

  November 18, 2021 - Happiness. This wine made me happy. I had high hopes, and it delivered! A beautiful light golden color with a transparent ring. right from the start, a lovely bouquet of white flowers, tropical fruit, stone fruit and chalk. The mouth is just so compatible with the nose, and it's filled with the exact same notes. lovely finish. I could use a bit more acidity, but overall, a rare treat. unique. remarkable. wow.

  June 13, 2021 - Tasted two over the last six months. First time it was all about peach as primary notes. Even though I doubt it delveloped over the six months, second time was more about freshness and acidity.
  
  QPR = 92 points.
