  • Mid gold. Plenty of light honey, lime and some lemon, red apples, white flowers. Still fairly sweet but not cloying, decent acidity. Luscious in mouth. Enjoyable.

  • Mid gold. Lovely petrol and lychee nose. On the palate this is smooth and round and only just medium sweet with an oily slightly viscous texture. Smooth, mellow and fully mature but with a slight acidic kick on the finish which says I'm not done quite yet. Yes this will last a few years more but I think this is perfectly ready right now. I have one more bottle that I will drink this year.

  • Corovin sample: light gold, lovely viscosity clear & bright. Delicate petrolly nose, classic riesling , medium sweet with balancing acidity, altogether a very attractive wine at 15 years old & would still keep.

  • Score based on second evening. First evening it was a bit simple, though lovely sweet grape essence simple. Decent acidity but came over a bit sweet and honeyed. Second evening the simple sweetness was all dialed back and a better balanced wine emerged. Lots of crisper apples, lighter honey, ripe melon, flowers etc. Long, good acidity.
    Still has a while to go.

  • If this would be served blind with the Kabinett, I would have thought this is the Kabinett and vice versa. The Spätlese tastes less sweet and shows less concentration of its aromas than the Kabinett. After one day from the half emptied bottle it is quite onedimensional showing predominately pineapple and some spices in the finish and less acidity than on day one. Though very pleasant and easy going, even delivering fun, I have expected more. Even if the colour is less developed, I believe that it has shorter longevity and less aging potential than the Kabinett. It's quite confusing.
