Sunday, June 29, 2014 - London Blind Challenge (Vinotecca, London.): Blind. This screams Riesling on the nose. Couldn't be anything else. Very petrolly with a Limey freshness. Auslese weight, though almost not quite the sweetness I'd expect. Seems quite evolved. Maybe eating it's sugar. So, one of the Mosel vintages I think. About fifteen years old, so 98? ****. (Quite surprised to see it's an 02 BJS GK — maybe an awkward phase. As I type these up I've opened a half on the 98 non-GK of this, and it's far sweeter and more harmonious).
