  Brief notes only: Dried apricot fruit along with fresher herbal elements. Still nicely fresh acidity that works well with the fine, creamy texture. Good length finish and aromatic intensity. Drinks beautifully today.

  Gooseberry fruit with elements of dried apricots. Bees wax herbal complexity. Sufficient acidity but at the lower end of what’s needed. Nice intensity however.

  Brief notes from social event. Candid apricot, fine fresh herbs, also mint. A creamy texture adding more honey and melon notes. The palate still had some residual CO2 which actually complements a sufficiently fresh acidity. This summarizes 2 bottles opened after each other. One had a rather soft cork and was more evolved with additionally nutty elements in the aroma profile, the other was fresher. But mostly similar experiences and consistent aromatics.

  Rauno and Adithi's Valentine's Day Dinner (Wellington, NZ): Also served double blind with the apéritifs. Obviously classy German Auslese Riesling, I had pegged - due to its quality and its stage of evolution - as a 2001. Deep gold. Popped and poured with a slight spritz. Deep gold colour. A bouquet of peaches, pears, lemon, honey, quince and minerals. No turpentine note you often see on older Rieslings. On palate, harmonious and seamless. Lovely acidity. Pure and clean. Citric and honeyed with pineapple, yellow apple and river boulder. For me, at a perfect spot of its evolution. A brilliant Auslese!

  Double blind I was so deeply wrong here. I thought Mosel from the 2008 or 2009 vintage. A wonderful vital nose with a melange of herbs, yellow plums, quince, a bit of lychee, white flowers and hint of exotic and vanilla crumble. Very complex and playful.
  On the palate this Auslese shows it’s broader shoulders which is typical for the Hubacker vineyard. The acidity is still so present but super, super fine and interwoven. A very young and fresh showing. Wonderful, thanks Markus!
