Drinking excellent. Light golden, slightly green. Lemon pie, honey and ginger, tangerine and orange, slight mint/wintergreen. Beautiful balance of fruit with plenty of acid. Long pure and light finish…. Wonderful!

AP 17 11 From 375, with a gold capsule. Moderate yellow-gold. Piquant nose - obviously high acid, almost radishy/eiswein spicy. Medium + botrytis in a heavy layer. Roses Lime syrup. Flamed (like you’re flaming an orange peel over a drink) blood oranges and peaches. Syrupy texture, but maybe a little volatile in the midpalate. Red skinned peaches on the finish. Maturing, but where’s this headed?

(Dönnhoff Niederhäuser Hermannshöhle Riesling Auslese "Goldkapsel") ($50.00) Micro-chiseled, neurosurgical detail, implacable length, cherries and raspberries, a little phenolic scratchiness….lost for words, or rather, tired of them.

Super dark amber. Not many bortrytis notes and super low acidity. Aromas of caramell and nutty fruits. Untypical and not sure it will improve much.

Beautiful, show stopping wine. Balance of sugar and acid is epic.

What a beauty. Dark gold, with a heady riesling nose. Beautifully balanced between the sweetness of the fruit and the underlying acidity. Long finish.
A nice deal at $25. I'm kicking myself that I didn't buy more. Oh, well.
