Riesling Swag 2018 (Vlet Hamburg): Medium yellow colour. Very different than the 97 version of this wine and also quite different from from 99 version. The nose is very shy and subtle, there's some crystal clean stone pit fruit, subtle hints of slate, some spring herbs and hints of oriental spices. In the mouth, it's really well balanced, the acidity and sweetness blend well into each other, there's nothing sticking out. Long finish with a lot of detail.

Riesling SWAG 2018 (Restaurant Vlet, Hamburg / Speicherstadt): Pale yellow color. Nose is a bit muted, pure, petrol, few fruit. Off-dry, beautiful vibrant acidity. Very precise. Still too young and not fully developed. Needs another decade. 92+++
