Big and full bodied, I had this a few times when it was younger and it was too overblown for my taste, but it's mellowed out a lot and is now quite good. It's still big but not overwhelming and is really pleasant, very fruity but with some very positive bottle-age nuance. I wish I had tasted it a few times over the years to see when it turned the corner....

Delicious. Just entering it's prime drinking window, it was bold and expressive from the jump but developed significantly over 3-4 hours.

Nice wine with lots of potential - consumed over 2 nights and was still getting better as I finished it. Between Spatlese and Auslese, it's mildly sweet, with good balancing minerality, fantastic aromatic complexity. I can easily see 93-94 in 5+ years...
