I didn't expect it to last this long, but it was actually better now than when first released. A lot of the same floral characteristics were there, along with the grapefruit, but instead of a strong attack of citrus, it had soft spices like nutmeg and cloves.

My first Ehrenfelser, and expecting something pleasant since Riesling is my favourite grape. The nose is lime and grapefruit, the taste is more lime, grapefruit, citrus and a bit of pear which was cool. The pear eventually blew off leaving the grapefruit and a decent enoguh balance of acidity and minerality. This reminded me of an off-year Dr. L QbA, about right for the price I paid. I'll definitely look for this again.

Sure, giving an Ehrenfelser 93 might seem like a stretch, but this stuff is so good, and so cheap. Dollar for dollar one of my favourite wines of all time.

Beautiful fresh, floral and honeysuckle nose. Grapefruit, nectarine and spice on the palate. Slightly off-dry, with a round mouthfeel.
