10 years after Riesling tasting - 2011 (Restaurant Waldhorn, Kirchheim, Germany): Glass: Sophienwald Universal Bottle double decanted about 7h before the tasting. Bought at release, perfectly stored. Clear, golden color. Elegant, salty nose with some petrol. On the palate very precise, lean with a wonderful mineral core. A bit rounder/softer than the CSH. Beautiful acidity, lots of extract. Long finish. Probably a bit less potential than the CSH, but it needs at least 5+ years to fully shine. 93+

Wirkt nicht so burgundisch wie aus anderen Jahrgängen schon häufig erlebt. Eher Riesling mit viel Salzigkeit und einer angenehmen Frische. Zitrus, Weinbergpfirsich und nasser Stein. 93+

Very pure, bright fruit - apples, white stone and lime fruit. Fresh with lovely minerality and also some herbal notes. Complex, fresh, powerful with great length and persistence. Great future. 92-93+
