    March 24, 2021 - Teefarben, mit deutlichem Geruch und auch Geschmack von Tee, Rosenblättern, Rosinen ein bisschen Creme brulee..Bitter am Ende.
    Der Wein ist zwar noch trinkbar aber doch deutlich ueber'm Berg. Wurde allerdings auch schlecht gelagert; dafür hat er sich noch erstaunlich gut gehalten..

    August 29, 2016 - Chicagoer Rieslingfeier (Chicago, IL): The cork fell right in the moment it was touched. Soy bomb.

    October 24, 2015 - Very typical old Riesling nose of red spices, old, sugar, and apple/pear, burnt sugar. Definitely showing its age on the palate with more burnt sugar - brulee, new sugar and spice. Aged but tasty and still alive. Finish shows apple, spice, and sugar. Nose - 5/6, Palate - 5/6, Finish - 5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1/2 = 16/20.

    October 24, 2015 - Grand Sich excess: Very good, but a bit below expectations for a '71 Rheingau Auslese. Lots of ripe tropical fruit, apricot, and citrus flavours tinged with honey, orange peel, and botrytis spice notes, but the fruit feels a bit tired and desiccated and this doesn't have enough acidity to really balance the still-ample sweetness. Pleasant, but not great.
