  A most pleasant surprise. Still plenty of fruit (and maybe some botrytis) along with good acidity that balances perfectly against the still notable sweetness. Very good on its own, perfect with a salad of arugula, avocado, and smoked salmon. Cellared since original release.

  Drank this tonight at my place over a family gathering with Dim Sum.
  
  Drank this side by side with the 2007 Domaines Schlumberger Riesling Kessler.
  
  Wine had the expected floral nose of an 8 year old German Riesling, with nutty notes with a bit of caramel touch.
  
  On the palate the wine is smooth and elegant, with a little petroleum and funky notes in the way. Nectar, almond and honeysuckle can be found in the body. Quite well structure and evolved at this stage, this wine is ready to be consumed and enjoyed.

  Apricot and honey initially. Full bodied mouthfeel and slight acidity cutting through the sweetness. Drinking beautifully now. I was pleasantly surprised how well it paired with Greek cuisine.

  Drank this over a Chinese New Year gathering at my auntie's place.
  
  Sweet, honey and nectar like characteristics, with strawberries and sweet peaches in the mix. A touch of green and roasted nuts with caramel can be found in the wine too. The finishing touch was elegant and smooth.
  
  This wine lives up to Riesling's reputation as 'the noble grape' with its aromatic and perfumed nose. In its golden stage now, this is an ideal period to drink this beautiful wine.
  
  No regards buying and opening this wine. Wished I had more to share.
