The wine looks yellow gold colored. It smells like lemon, diesel, pineapple, orange blossom, honeysuckle and geranium. The diesel character dissipated quite quickly over 30 minutes leaving a honeyed aged character. It tastes like lemon, pineapple, passion fruit, honeysuckle and diesel. The body is medium. The wine has linear texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity. Possibly verging on maturity I'm not sure how long it will continue to live but it was a lovely aged reisling that i will remember for a long time.

Very delicious. Prior notes have said citrus but I got citrus peel and then dried apricots on the nose. Nice richness with a sweet tough and very nice acidity. Has life ahead of it.

Gentle sweet honeydew, lychee, green tea, mineral - graceful balance of fruit and acid. I really like this wine - crisp finish. German Rieslings are fantastic.

This bottle is good - no fading here. Delish! ***Day2-3 best - opened up and shined!***

Has taken on weight with age. Flavors have concentrated, although does seem to have faded a bit. Will drink my last bottle this year.
