As opposed to another bottle that had clearly ozidized, this one was in great shape. Deep yellow color, nice marmalade nose, good fruit, and structure with good acidity with a long finish. Held up well against other German and Alsace Rieslings in the tasting.

Near perfect riesling. Texture, voluptuous, some creaminess and a long balanced finish stand out as unusual and unexpected. It still finished (even after the creamy entry and mouthfeel) with structure and some welcomed acidity that keeps it refreshing. Fairly intense notes of citrus, wildflower and honey with some flinty mineral underneath. Others at our dinner actually assumed it was a "lively" chardonnay at first until I showed them the wine because of the mouthfeel. If its this balanced at this age, I assume it will get even better but actually stunning now.
