Dark yellow gold and clear. Tropical fruit still present, orange, lemon, a bit of petrol. Juicy. Pretty straight forward. Nice acidity keeping it fresh and beautifully balanced with the sweetness. Absolutely delicious. Remarkable after 20+ years. I think it will have some additional years to go, but will not necessarily improve in terms of complexity.

The wine looks yellow gold colored. The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like mango, pear, orange, petrol and honey. It tastes like raisin, lime, mango, mineral and honey.

Surprising pale for a wine of this age. Definite aged Riesling character but kerosene note still in check. Some complexity. Moderate weight with strong acid backbone and zesty finish. Sweet wine for grown-ups.

Fijne zoetzuur balans, mooi citrusfruit met een enorme lik zoet die deze fles, 15 jaar na oogsten, echt de moeite waard.
