10 years after Riesling tasting - 2012 - Part II (Concept Riesling, Düsseldorf): Glass: Gabriel Standard Tasted blind. Clear, deep yellow color. Mature, ripe, oxidative nose with some mellow apple. On the palate as well oxidative. Lots of mellow apple. Intense, creamy, almost oily. But also very sweet when compared with the Schlossberg. Certainly well made, but not my favorite wine. 91-92

Not so strong as the 2013. Got it blind, can't guess either vintage nor the region. It worked for the grape at least. The 2013 is more "Chardonnay" like. But this one is also creamy and with depth and multilayered. Missing a bit concentration and pureness in the finish. Many iz needs more time. Decanted for half hour. 92+

Drank it blind. Not that strong as the 2013 vintage. This one has a typical Riesling nose which the other one has not. But it is more well-behaved than the 2013. Maybe I expected more but well structured abd good length. After one hour more power and concentration. Yellow stone fruits and guave. 92-93
