  Had over two days. Mid-yellow. Tinned peach, a little bit of ginger and mandarin peel, earthy as distinct from minerally. My nose initially detected what I thought was a smattering of botrytis, but this wasn't subsequently confirmed. In the mouth, the wine showed that it was still in its fairly straightforward primary phase, with the Treppchen yellow peach taking some time to reveal the level of its generosity and density. Lively finish. The palpable spritzig on both days tells me that this is early days for this very good plus wine.

  Really enjoyable. Nicely balanced, ripe and sweet. Would have liked a touch more acidity, normal Riesling flavours.

  Indestructible. Left it out for over a week and drank as as well as a week ago. Lively petrol and mineral. Tropical fruit with sweetness supported by fine acidity.

  Ever having to restrain my ratings of sweet wines and not get carried away. For my 500th rating, this sumptuous 11yo spaty (just made that up).
  
  N: Candied orange jumps from the glass, tangy orange peel, wonderful vibrancy and subtle petrol undercurrent.
  
  P: Ah, harmony. M acidity holding up strong against the off-dry palate. Tangy chunky marmalade, great depth, cooked peach and oily petrol, wet slate undertones.
  
  F: Clean, orange rind. Classic.

  A medium golden Yellow, very good balance between sweetness and acidity. Still remarkably good after 9 years, I have a feeling it would go on for two more years at least. proper German wine you could say of the old style which for me is a good thing. They need a new classification old style and new style easy. The wine went well with roast chicken, roast potato and cauliflower cheese.
