Bright lime and honey on the nose, rich and nutty on the palate, and excellent length and balance on the finish. Will move the remaining bottle to the "ready to drink" shelf but won't be in any rush. This wine is in a beautiful place. Did start to slowly fade after a couple of hours - had popped and poured after letting the bottle warm up for an hour after pulling from fridge.

My last bottle of this. Aromas of stone fruit, petrol and minerals with some oxidative notes. Creamy and round on the palate with an overall very soft mouthfeel. In the end, I think that this has shown to be what you should expect from a good 12 year old bottle of Riesling.

A better bottle than the last, but still not as good as the first one tasted last June. Aromas of honey, peach, apple, some minerality and a little bit of petrol. Round on the palate with some creaminess, it seemed just a little bit tired, although it still drank very well.

Tree fruits, petroleum, mushrooms on the palate. Started off great but went tight after an hour in the glass.

Medium yellow. All petrol and apple. Perhaps a little dilution and diffuseness on the palate, but really good mineral finish and good acidity.
