  November 12, 2020 - Along with Danny, celebrating Estie's birthday at home. We have take-out from China Village in Albany. Medium yellow in color. Aromatics of white stone fruit. White nectarines, poached pears and a bit of citrus on the palate. Bold. Nice sweetness-acidity trade off. Good finish. Certainly an excellent companion with our dinner.

  September 7, 2016 - White fruit (peach, Apple, citrus), good acidity. Good sweetness. Floral. Slight honey. Lingering finish. Some strong floral on the finish. Really enjoyable.

  July 17, 2016 - Urobilin yellow. Petrol, white flower, and peach aromas. Rich and oily in texture, this lacks the acidity and structure of great vintages (which 2003 decidedly is not) but nonetheless has aged quite well.

  November 5, 2011 - A weekend with friends in Germany Mosel area: Part 3: Beautiful bouquet with smoke and minerals. On the palate a touch of petrol. Good refinement and a lovely balance between acidity and sweetness.

  November 5, 2011 - Dreamtasting #3 (Bernhard Eifel Restaurant, Trittenheim): Not the most complex or cerebral wine of the evening, but this wine made a good impression because of its freshness and weightlessness, which is an admirable achievement in this vintage (I gambled on a 2005 Mosel spätlese). Botrytis is hardly perceptible (if it's in there?). With its impeccable balance in acidity and sweetness, it is very hard not to swallow this wine. Good stuffing, exotic flavor, fine acidity. Yum. 17.5/20
