  Surprised to see this was a screwcap German Riesling. Maybe I'm behind the times. This was delicious. Very unctuous (RP term) for a Kabinett. Big body, citrus but peach also. Drinking well and may get better still.

  Decanted for 1h then back into bottle. Now 3h after decant. Lovely aromas of mild petrol ,tart and ripe apples, just ripe pineapples, herbs, line and minerals. Palate w gala apples, just ripe pineapples, herbs, nice minerals. Medium body w excellent acids. Sensation of mild tannins. Excellent concentration and depth. This is complex and delicious.

  this was a much better showing than a bottle a few years ago. The sweetness has subsided further, there's just a hint of petrol, and plenty of mouthwatering, lemony acidity. The term 'playful' is a bit trite and vague, but it is descriptive of this bottle.

  Yellow orchard fruits and minerals in equal proportion with a firm acidic backbone. Very lightly sweet, could pass as a feinherb. Good concentration. Drinks younger than its age, shouid easily last for another decade, and likely two.

  Two+ years since my last bottle, and this is now in the zone. Still very bright and fresh, it also has an underlying touch of creaminess. The fruit is yellow and green, and the minerality turns electric on the finish. Lots of stuffing left, so drink now, and over the next 20+ years.
