Popped and poured at fridge temp. Quite shy on the nose initially, needed a bit of air to get going. Petrolly, sweet but green apples on the nose, white stone fruits. The palate is a bit spritzy, shows sweet nectarine and green apple, good acidity to counteract the sweetness. In a very nice spot now, will likely continue to develop, but I won't know, this is my last bottle.

Popped and poured at fridge temp. Smells of kerosene starting to develop, otherwise some peach in the background. The palate shows rich apple, quite sweet, acidity ok, but not searing as one would hope. A very nice wine that will continue to develop.

Popped and poured at fridge temp. Very nice aromas of tropical fruits, peaches, but also a hint of green apple. The palate is very sweet, but has good acidity to keep it up, although not razor sharp. Better than the 2010 Lieser I had earlier this week, but still not giving me the wow effect I got from a 2005 Lieser last year.

I would say this is a text book aged Mosel riesling. Volcanic opulence. Typical Kranklay. Medium body with a medium finish.
I don't think it can develop any further as there is just enough acidity to balance the high sweetness. Drink now.
Overall: Well aged and a typical Kranklay wineyard.
