This has managed to turn dark golden yellow against amber. Scents of light citrusn apricot, and with light hints of grease pit. The wine is not particularly fresh and nimble. It has begun to acquire a tertiary, almost fortified feel. The acid is perceived as absent. Ripe yellow fruit, water with lemon/lime slice, and the ending is with tea and decaying leaves. My assumption is that this wine is at the end of its drinking window now.

Needed a little time to come around. Started out a bit astringent. Nice aromatics of pineapple, lemon and grapefruit. Steely minerality, nice acid spine. Could have used a couple hours but my table mates were not sippers. Got my attention.

Dark yellow. Rich, ripe and rather developed Riesling aromas. Rich, forward and dry in the mouth. Very good for a 2011.
