3/8/20, 8:26 AM - This wine is still super young. So I think it is rather prematurely to judge it now at the age of only 15 years right now.
8/29/19, 11:05 PM - Thanks for this review, really great to hear that the wine is in a great state and with your entertaining way of writing you might think about becoming a wine writer ;)
8/7/19, 9:47 AM - I think this might just have been a bottle in bad conditions. Normally they last for at least 25-30 years, especially in a great vintage like 2005 more like 40 years. So, I don't really believe the wine is at fault. Had it a few months ago and it was even a bit too youthful and is just entering its prime in my opinion.

The "boiled egg" flavours that your are describing are coming from storing a wine a bit too long on the lees and this flavour will disappear with longer storage. But giving a wine a too high dose of sulfites has nothing to do with this phenomenon at all because this does not create reductive tendencies.
12/10/17, 2:28 AM - I kind of agree with that. I just want to be conservative when talking about drinking window and 2035 is already quite long (21 years), a point where 99% of GGs have left their peak.But yeah KP Keller wines are always kind of the exception :D
12/9/17, 3:04 PM - Thank you!! :)
6/26/17, 3:08 AM - Would you say this wine could age for another decade or has it reached its peak already?
6/26/17, 3:59 AM - Thanks for the fast and helpful reply!
6/24/17, 5:25 AM - Thanks for the very helpful advice!!Seems to be a good time to open the first of my three bottles...I am really excited for this wine!
6/24/17, 2:49 AM - As you say that the wine evolved in the glass, would you say that maybe a 3-4 hour decant might be even more beneficial to this wine at its current state?

5/26/17, 4:06 AM - Why only 84 points with such a positive review?
2/21/17, 5:30 AM - What is the German pun in that sentence? :D
