Wow, a very different experience than the first bottle. I find generous acidity here to offset the sugar. Full nose, viscous, flavorful, lively and structured. A touch heavy on the sweetness which I expect a couple more years to tame. Charming.

Just a bit too cloying. There's structure there, plenty of character, good mouth feel, lasting finish, fruit. Effervescent upon opening. Could use a touch more acidity for balance, to offset the residual sugar. Quite drinkable yet not remarkable. Would like to see where this goes over the years, though the lower acidity makes me wonder. Screw top.

Very light and tasty with medium+ sweetness (for a spat). Lacks much of the depth and minerally backbone that can be found in top producers like JJ Prum, which leaves the sweetness hanging out there. Regardless an enjoyable bottle of Mosel riesling that paired quite well with a spicy cajun chicken dish.

Similar to previous bottles. Light and fruity with plus sweetness and saline minerality. A fair value.

Light, moderately sweet, spritzy so2, slate and saline with a fine texture. Nice spat.
