  Phil and Jane: Light gold.
  Fresh and attractive bouquet of orchard fruits, mineral, touch of honey. It’s dry, but has ripe, sweet fruits to the fore. Balanced and complex in the mouth, with a mouthwatering citrus tinged acid. Long finish. Drinks well for a couple of days after opening.

  The comments by Philipp Biermann below are pretty spot on, to me. I would add that from a vintage with many challenges, this is a splendid example of what top producers can do. Many Rieslings from this year are a bit too big for me to consider ideal, but this wine has the minerality and acid freshness that make it unmistakably German. I really think that those who love Chablis should also look to Germany for they will get the minerality, taughtness and intellectual elements of Chablis at far better prices. The wines are, of course, very different but they do have some points in common. This drinks beautifully on opening and for the next day. Drink in your garden on a sunny day, for perfection.

  Riesling 1.Lage wie aus dem Lehrbuch: Kristall klares helles Gelb im Glas; toll eingebundene Säure (Zitronenschale, Pomelo), Quitte, Reife Birne, grüner Apfel, etwas Puderzucker. Sehr schön zu trinken, recht langer Abgang!

  Nicht perfekt im Sommer 2018 gelgert.
  Scheint mir dennoch intakt zu sein. Vielleicht sind aber die letzten 2-3 Prozent "Genialität" verloren gegangen?!
  Recht trocken für das Weingut, deutliche, gut integrierte Säure. Zitrus Aromen dominieren das Geschmacksbild. Sauber, nicht technisch aber auch irgendwie relativ eindimensional. Mineralisch und relativ lang im Abgang. Wurde intern als sehr nahe dem GG beschriben. Ist vermutlich auch so. Um 88-89 Punkte. Guter trockener Riesling. Sollte bei sehr guten Lagerbedingungen bequem zehn Jahre reifen können.
