  May 22, 2023 - Not had this since 2015 but it has improved. Still youthful and zingy acidity but nice lemon and apple fruit. Nice intensity. Will keep but ready to go.

  May 26, 2015 - Bought at location in 2010.
  
  Not at all as impressed now as I was back then. Remember it as much more delicate with bright, crisp fruit. Not all wines are suitable for ageing I suppose.
  
  Developing nose with medium intense aromas of petro-chem, gravel, citrus fruit, grapefruit, apples, green grass and grapes.
  
  Medium+, tart acidity with half dry sweetness. Lacking a bit of balance and intensity. Got no problem drinking it though! :)

  May 25, 2015 - Clear, pale intensity lemon color.
  
  The nose is youthful with a medium aroma intensity. Aromas of grapefruits, lemon, lime, stony mineral, melon, fresh grapes and petroleum.
  
  Half-dry on the palate with a medium(+) tart acidity and medium body. The flavor intensity is medium with flavors of grapefruit, fresh grapes, lime zest, honeysuckle and green apples. The finish is medium and again a bit tart.
  
  This was tasted along with 2012 Willi Schaefer Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spätlese and this was obvious the weaker one. It lacks a bit of harmony and elegance and the grape material isn't really of the same high quality. Surprisingly youthful for it's age and really easy-drinking and refreshing.

  March 29, 2015 - Evolving well. In between youthful and starting to show integrated fruit (nose less evolved than the flavour). Nice mix of lemon and apple fruit. with good acidity and not overly sweet. A potentially good Kabinett, needs a couple more years.

  May 29, 2014 - Excellent Kabinett, ripe, juicy, packed with flavour of nectarine and mirabelle. Much like this imbiber it has put on a weight since 2010, now in a lovely drinking phase but I'd expect it to keep on going through to 2018.
