    January 1, 2022 - Have gained more weight since last bottle 3 years ago. Petroleum/rubber now more at the fore. Really good, still needs 1-2 hours of air to fully unfold.

    June 25, 2018 - Very good riesling in a dry but generous style. Apples, citrus and peach on the nose. Very round mouthfeel with lingering limepeel, sunripe lemon and superb tingling, smokey minerality on the tip of the tongue. Early maturity but many years development to go. Enjoyable now either way.

    January 23, 2014 - AuZone AGM (AuZone, Stockholm): Nose with citrus, mineral, a hint of yellow apple, some honey, some peach and elegance. Palate with good concentration, citrus, mineral, high acidity and a long grapefruit aftertaste. Rather young, approachable now, 92(+) p.
    This was my first encounter with a Künstler wine from Rüdesheimer Berg, as opposed to their home village of Hochheim. A really good wine, that has the elegance of a good Rüdesheim vineyard but still quite a lot of Künstler’s typical style, i.e. rather fruity and accessible. I find the combination quite appealing.

    June 12, 2013 - A heavy and fruity riesling also with lots of aromaticity.
    It lacks excitement and it got strange with time...

    September 23, 2012 - Slate minerals in the bouquet. Same on the palate. White as well as yellow tropical fruits. Fairly ripe fruits. Ok wine with good complexity. Not sure if the fruits were perfectly ripe.
