Medium golden colored. Nice fresh nose with lots of citrus and some greenish fresh herbal notes. On the palate an elegant mineral notes, citrus, soft kumquat, some green grass and a nice soft creamy touch in the background. Medium bodied with a high acidity. Very precise fruit and acidity structure. Great complexity and a beautiful overall balance. Very refreshing and long finish. Beautiful dry Riesling that’s in a great spot now. Some great years ahead. Drink now until 2028. Fantastic QPR in my opinion. One of the international less known producers, but you should definitely try some of his wines when you can get your hands on some. (IG)

[Restaurant purchase] from memory, no detailed notes. Very good; lemon, lime grapefruit, some white peach. Good acidity. Had expected a bit more given the raving critic reviews, on the young side

Am 1. März 2020 probiert auf der messe im Kloster E. Aus der Erinnerung. Sehr guter Riesling! Auch für 2017 top geraten! Vielleicht der beste trockene Weißwein auf der gesamten Messe! Um 93 Punkte. Machte bereits großen Spaß! Vermutlich schon 2020 toll zu trinken

Here too 2017 leaner than 2016. However the 2017 has freshness and feels less oaked and vis a vis the 2016 isn't the lesser wine - just the fresher one. On par with St Nikolaus this vintage whereas 2016 we all had a clear preference of the St Nikolaus.

Nose: prnounced, smoke, citrus pith, mineral, full. Palate: Tart, very pithy, citrus-led. Element of sour cream/cream cheese. Acid-led and structured. Piquant, full-on style.

Gold color. Lemon, pineapple, subtle but distinct creamy and petrol on the palate. Piercing acidity with medium body. Finish with acidic taste.

Tour VDP.GROSSE LAGE 2020 (chamber of commerce) IHK Handelskammer, Hamburg): One glass, brief note: more density than the St. Nikolaus, less acid driven, the pure clean concentration of Riesling fruit, creamy flow, great long+ finish, needs time, try again in 5(+) years, **(**-?), around 92(+)
