octopussy Does not like this wine: 83 points
April 17, 2018 - Riesling Swag 2018 (Vlet Hamburg): I've had three times before with consistent results (88-89 P). All bottles had a medium to light golden colour and were decently clean for a 2006. But this bottle was a bit of a mess with a dark golden colour and a nose full of unclean botrytis and overripe apple. Quite sweet and a tad bitter as well. You can drink it, but it's not much fun.

March 28, 2018 - Deep golden. This has reached a harmonious maturity where the mellow richness is balanced by an excellent acidity. I didn't decant it, and we drank it over two hours, so I can't report on any ulterior developments. It is not at all tired, in fact the Heyman Löwenstein wines seem to age very slowly.

October 1, 2016 - deep golden at the eye, light orange. Hydrocarbons and slate the first scents in the baloon. Then tons of ripe tropical exotic fruit with some honey and dried apples and apricot. Palate consistent with nose. Time has long worked on this wine releasing surprising hidden notes but reducing acidity over time. Seems almost a late harvest wine. Wonder how it was five years ago

January 19, 2014 - Though still quite advanced in color, this was much fresher than our pervious bottle, however still lacked the energy and liveliness of the first. Nevertheless this boasted gorgeous aromas of apricots, golden apple, lemon candy, and honeysuckle. Rich and viscous on the palate as a melange of tropical fruits competes with racy lime citrus and saline crushed rock. Almond paste, dried herbs, and peach pit add interest to the finish. Drink.

January 7, 2014 - This was quite advanced and evolved compared to our prior bottle. Rich golden color. Quite savory aromas of dried spiced pineapple, waxy citrus, coriander, and fallen leaves. Rich and viscous on the palate, as baked citrus, honeysuckle, and cinnamon compete with fading lemon citrus acidity. Not sure if this is representative, but it certainly wasn't as vibrant and explosive of our last bottle. Nevertheless, there is a bit of interest to the savory qualities. Drink.
