  Apple, honeyed lemon, delicate minerality. Lots of saline, full body, medium plus alcohol with a hint of smoke, long finish with some petrol. Beginning to like aged riesling!

  Golden yellow, heavy legs, the wine opens with honeyed stewed apples, hint of cooked pineapple, almond scents. There was slate-like minerality, spring earth, and petrol. On the palate, well balanced, medium alcohol, bright, with medium finish. Wine dominated by minerality, crispness, and obvious complexity...should continue to age... 91 pointer!

  This even smells oily and fat, full of good Alsace flavour, the acidity is a great foil to the full rich fruit, one of the best Alsace Rieslings that I have encountered
