  This has improved since my last bottle three years ago.
  Darker colour than some Spatlese I’ve had.
  Great flavours and nice pairing with grandma’s curry chicken and rice with yogurt sauce

  Open in the bottle for a few hours. Beautiful golden color. Excellent, expressive riesling nose. Petrol, greengage, starfruit, lime peel, hint of whipped cream. Palate is a little less expressive, ripe pineapple, cream, vanilla, lime, hint of butter popcorn. Off dry but balalnced by good acidity. A full body, medium, slightly bitter finish. Classic riesling though, very enjoyable.

  7/19/2022 - Bagwhat Likes this wine:

  Consistent with previous note (unsurprisingly… only 4 months ago). Same fruit profile and length, same balance, same temperature sensitivity. Drinking at home in a Glasvin Universal, and the bouquet is a little less petrol and more fruit-forward. Will taste over a couple of days to track.
  Day 2: lemon zest emerges in the nose, the palate continues to be yellow fruited, erring tropical. Acidity really zings between fridge and cellar temperature. Not getting the herbal note this time around.
  Day 3: beginning to feel tired, fruit fading. Drink up!

  Riesling Study 011 (Pizzeria Beddia): Brought this and opened during dinner at #rieslingstudy011
  WOTN of the ones we brought. A really potent petrol nose kind of masks everything else at first but as it blows off botrytized golden fruits emerge, peaches lemons and more exotic tropical fruits. The palate follows, with a distinctly herbal note lacing through mango and pineapple. There's definitely honeyed botrytis in there, but that herbs and some stony citrus acid emerge at the end. Beautiful, though as it warmed in the glass to room temperature it became flabby and the only thing that remained was sugar. Definitely needs to be cold.

  Gasoline nettle dill grassy
  
  Gold spritz
  
  Shy, but apricot, Riesling funk like rotting nettle fermentation
  
  Honeyed deep tart acidic nectar, not as thick as I’d expect but pleasantly so. Amazingly crisp and acidic
  
  Lemon ginger custard, key lime pie
  
  Peach, creamy
  
  4.7
