Monday night blinds (just me and Roger) (Home (Noe st)): Medium yellow with reflections of gold. Elevated intensity aromatics of cantaloupe melon with arugula, dried peach, slight dried pineapple. No signs of botrytis. No overt oxidation or development, but the fruit character supports some age. Dry, m body, m+ alcohol (13.5%), m+ acid, m phenolic bitterness. Slight vegetal radish/romanesco on the finish.
Very nice, not quite smaragd-level gruner. A bit pricey - I like the Alzinger Federspiel a bit better than this.

Brundlmayer Tasting (Arlequin Wines, San Francisco): Yellow color. Some citrus on the nose. Serious, deep flavors and a touch of flowers. Mature elements, still great acidity. Excellent length and complexity.

Monday Night Blinds (Home (Noe st)): Pretty classic mid-weight 13.5% gruner - like a light Smaragd. Fresh apricot and white pepper on the finish!

Similar notes as last time but felt a bit muted.
