  A beautiful, not too sweet, Riesling that is great as a before dinner or after dinner wine. Would definitely purchase this producer again.

  Definitely improving. More tension in this bottle. Still a bit ripe but gaining balance.

  Prior bottle was only 8 months ago, but the wine did show a bit better tonight. White peach, floral and that smokey, saline quality on the nose - felt a bit cleaner and more whitefruit based than prior bottle. Between light and medium bodied with white apple and white peach the dominant fruit notes. Very nice citrus notes on the backside. The issue remains the acidity. There isn't enough of it for it to feel vibrant, but it does act as something of a blanket, concealing some of the mid-body fruit as well as the interplay between mid-body and citrus behind. Under screwcap, it's not surprising that even a Kabinett takes bit more time to develop than I have given it. As it warms, picks up more complexity and depth and seems to come into better balance with the acidity. All this tells me that some patience will be rewarded and I'll try to show some myself and hold off on my last bottle until at least late Fall 2024.
