  The wine looks yellow gold colored. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like orange, lime, a hint of petrol and apple blossom. It tastes like gooseberry, petrol and grapefruit. It is refreshing. The body is medium. The wine has juicy texture. The wine finishes very long, including some hazelnuts and lime.. The wine has high acidity as one expects from Riesling. It still has lots of life in it and is not tired at all. #XavierAuerbach was too conservative in saying it would survive until 2023. Certainly no masterpiece, but attractive and nice without food.

  Bouquet mit exotischer Frucht, Reifenoten (Firnis) und Mineralik; am Gaumen wunderbar ausbalancierter, schön gereiften, klarer Riesling mit sehr ausgewogener Balance von Säure und Mineralik. Langer, toller Abgang. Sehr lecker

  German wine tasting followed by a Lunch (@ de Nederlanden): Beautiful and clean bouquet with white fruits. On the palate good freshness, firm acidity and bite. Good length. No more notes.

  A German Wine Tasting-cum-Lunch (Restaurant De Nederlanden *, Vreeland, NL): Marries depth and elegance, orange fruit, playful but serious, depth and lift, ripe and juicy, impressive.

  This is still young. Distinctly pettillant on opening, better after 24 hours. Petrol and lemon nose. Gloriously rich palate, though bone dry. No longer searingly acidic - a great dry riesling even without food.
