November 28, 2009 - Half bottles for Thai food offline (King's Heath, Birmingham): From a half. A very riesling nose with petrol and raisin fruit. Odd palate. It's obviously very old, and unfortunately it's now so very tired as to be dead.

October 23, 2004 - Drunk at the wine-pages.com SuperBOWL 2004 dinner.
Very old, slightly oxidised riesling nose. Initially it seems merely a bit old and dried out, although far from dead. But tasted again, about two and a half hours later, it reveals a bright clean mature riesling nose hinting at sort of BA type levels of ripeness. On the palate it is more clearly a fine Alsace riesling. Very full, with nice balance. Excellent.
