While the previous not holds true (including the food pairing), this was our last bottle of this wine and we did not consume it too early. Quite dark and just slightly musty. Very Good, but seems to be in decline. thedrunkencyclist.com

Bought on close-out for $10. Wonderful mature riesling. Rich gold color, petrol, floral, apple, and mineral on the nose, rich and fruity on the palate but with good bracing acidity, and a juicy finish. An extremely enjoyable bottle of wine and a shocking value at the price I paid.

I have had this wine for a while and I was eager to see where it was (I have two more left). Color certainly was showing its age. On the nose, a bunch of fruit (apple and peach) and minerals, even a touch of petrol. On the palate, quite unctuous and full with an acidity that cries out for food. Really good. Almost wine of the night (WOTN). Paired with Haemul Pajeon (Korean Seafood Pancakes).

A little darker than last note, but otherwise consistent. Very good.
