10 years after Riesling tasting - 2010 (Restaurant Holz und Feuer, Kirchheim, Germany): *** brief impression from tasting event, no detailed tasting note *** Glass: Gabriel Standard and Sophienwald Bordeaux Bottle opened at noon, double decanted. Drunk about 8-10h later. Clear, medium golden color. Nose with some band aid and stony mineral notes. Very lean, never fat or hot. Deep and lots of pressure. Very good acidity, lots of mineral notes, some band aid /medicinal notes in the background. Very long. Quite similar to the bottle from January. Potential for 5+ years. 92-93

F.X. Pichler Riesling Unendlich full vertical (1998-2017) (Restaurant Waldhorn, Kirchheim, Germany): Glass: Gabriel Standard Bottle opened ~36h before. Double decanted ~ 10h before drinking. Clear, deep golden color. Clean, deep nose, with a surprising ripeness. On the palate the leanest wine of this decade. Good acidity, alcohol well integrated. Very deep, lots of pressure, very long. Good potential for at least 5+ years. 92-93

Quite a lot of saffron and honey on the nose. Full-bodied and powerful, with high intensity, firm acidity and warming alcohol in the long finish. Impressive or overdone, as you wish. Anyway fairly heavy to drink.

This is a truly spectacular wine. Almost like a dry Sauternes with some notes of botrytis and lots of saffron. Fantastic juice!
