November 15, 2023 - Spectacular Riesling. Needed something celebratory and this hit the spot. Amazing power and depth here with an array of orchard fruits, smoke, mineral, floral, and all sorts of other flavours coming together into a seamless whole. It's quite rich (closer to an Auslese than Spätlese in sweetness and richness), but there's also tremendous acidity here keeps it impeccably balanced, leading into a long, surprisingly tart finish. Glad I have a few more, though I'll leave those alone a while longer as this still feels quite youthful with lots of material and structure here.

December 5, 2021 - Noticed some cheesy funk as the previous taster mentioned on the nose. Showed its age with its fruit and sweetness being a little mellow despite an obvious weight and acid to the wine. Everything in place but not the most memorable.

January 31, 2021 - #09-02, 8.5% abv. The nose on this starts off with a little cheesy funk, not dissimilar to the notes I get from aged Wehlener Sonnenuhr, but it wafts away quickly, exposing a core of tart orchard fruit, green herbs, a splash of honey -- actually, kind of like a fruit salad dressed with a bit of honey and a generous squeeze of lime juice. The palate is extraordinarily racy and acidic, although there's enough sweetness to counterweight it. Unlike the auction GKA of the same vintage (which drinks like a BA+), this is classically styled and shows no Prädikat creep whatsoever. Did I mention how much acid this wine has? It'll last forever; too bad this was my only bottle.

November 29, 2020 - Much better integrated than last summer. Sweeter, younger, more on the dried fruits side with quince and abricots. Delicious, still young wine.

July 25, 2020 - Just archetypical for the Prädikat. Nicely evolved with some tertiary notes evoking dusty and earthy aromas with a good balance of sweet and sour. Will keep but I don‘t see any upward potential.
