Introduction

This one is always a perfect balanced, well structured tasty fruit driven Riesling, somehow an everybodys darling, but a top notch one, served at the wine bar of our football stadium, highly recommended! ***. 89-91

My todays stadium companion from the plastic cup, a little bright on nose and palate, lacking the tension I really do admire from a classic Riesling vintage, fruity, luscious, not that sweet despite its youthfulness, ending quite long with a well integrated acidity, **-***, 87-89+?

From JEROBOAM: this bottle shows impressivly why a wine bottle never can be too large, from opening slow ox over about five hours, the only problem with large format bottles is the cork, to unsrew it, but this time it is that loose, from the first light touch it vanished into the bottle, first this one was a little shy, acid driven, nose of compot, overripe fruit, over hours changed into a very harmonic and balanced wine, rich and deep, showing tobacco, coconut, delicious ripe black fruit, the last sip was the best! From large format still a lot of life ahead! ENJOY! **(**+?), 88- 93+?

From Doublemagnum! What can I write or testify? All you want from a great vineyard! A perfectly balanced bottle with a lush stonefruit, light to moderate bodied, a still vivacious acidity, mouthwatering, everybody was somewhat upset when we finished this one! From this large format still some life ahead, but tonight absolutely delicious, enjoy! ***(*), 91-93+?
