07JUL19: Reviewing one week after drinking; wow, what a wine! After battling with the cork, opens to a warm pale gold color and notes of apricot and peach on the nose; medium body sweet wine with muted acidity (from aging); big ripe summer fruits - peaches, apricots, and even apple on the nose, which build on the palate with expected minerality and hints of slate on the finish; don’t expect a cutting young Riesling for spicy Thai foods, but a guaranteed crowd pleaser as a food wine for more savory dishes.

German wine tasting followed by a Lunch (@ de Nederlanden): The bouquet is showing maturity and is beautiful. On the palate slightly petrol, minerals, good acidity and bitterness, lime and a good length. Beautiful wine. 91 - 92

A German Wine Tasting-cum-Lunch (Restaurant De Nederlanden *, Vreeland, NL): Fully mature, waxy evolution, still has a lovely freshness and good definition of fruit, good length. Impressive.

Lovely lively 2005 acidity, wax and juicy peach, flowers and minerals, fully mature but still energetic, nice weight, nice length. Now - 2015.
