  March 18, 2019 - Just a beautiful expression of Berg Rottland. Strong, pure, mineral apricot fruit that is ripe but not overripe. Still a fair amount of sweetness here, but balanced by the acidity. This wine remains quite young and still has a good future. Cellared since original release.

  March 7, 2018 - Nice integrated wine, delicious and balanced if lacking in complexity. Green apple, spice, very slight petrol. Still has life, but I don't think it's going to improve.

  May 17, 2015 - Monthly Tasting Group: Brunello's (Rinata, Mpls): Very small pour, light gold color. This was good, didn't fit with our food when it came around, but served as a nice contrast and palate refresher to some of the more astringent reds of the evening. Green tree fruits, leafy, floral, apple, peach, light and balanced.

  December 24, 2014 - Solid aged riesling, very enjoyable with roasted pork and banana flower salad, if a little one dimensional.

  May 30, 2012 - initially lacked some freshness and came across flabby and cloying, but very enjoyable nonetheless with petrol, baked apple, mineral, and spice. day 2 was much more interesting, with the sweetness more in check and lots of spice coming through. an enjoyable bottle, but nothing spectacular. if scoring, 85-87.
