  10 years after Riesling tasting - 2013 (Restaurant Holz und Feuer, Kirchheim, Germany): Glass: Sophienwald Universal
  What.A.Wine! Clear, pale yellow color. Incredible deep and dense nose, fruity, mineral, herbaceous. Super complex and intense.

  Tasted at the winery after the majority of the 2021 trocken (except the GG).
  
  Great, delicious wine. Mahatma Chianti below pretty much nailed the description. Nothing further to add.
