Finishing Contract Lunch (Restaurante Cuenllas - Madrid): Riesling if trocken, better. Too much sweetness to my taste but complex to the limit for what it is. My view always conditionated by the varietal. Still young but promising if soaked that sweet.
La Riesling sí seca y poco dulce, mejor. Demasiado dulzor para mi gusto pero compleja a tope. Siempre juzgo este tipo de botellas condicionado por la variedad. Aún así joven pero prometedora si ahogamos ese dulzor.

2001 and 2002 Dry Rieslings from Rheingau, Nahe & Pfalz (Home): Golden yellow. In the nose, there are very slight notes of age, but mostly ripe, juicy yellow stone fruit (peach, apricot), nutty notes and mushrooms. On the palate, it's baroque, full bodied, maybe a bit broad, but in any case with great drinking flow despite its mild acidity. Food wine.

Lovely, youthful looking green-yellow color. Honey and some petrol on the nose. Quite full, fresh, but lacking complexity and length. Disappointing for this wine.
