This is a wine I know well, this particular bottle came from a recent mixed auction lot. Other Austria wines in the lot were very youthful, this bottle was more advanced than I expected. Petrol dominates, ripe peach, some slight cidery notes. Not bad, but not what this wine could be There was another of these in same lot. We’ll see if a storage issue or just a bad cork. B- (C if you count disappointment)

Was interesting to experience an aged Riesling. We don't drink these very often. Color was medium dark gold. Longer finish than expected. Fruit was muted, but overall it had more life to it than expected. Definitely tertiary flavors.

Deep color, but still lively. Dry peach, apple, petrol. Long stony finish. B+
