August 14, 2021 - This was delightful tonight and consistent with my 2019 note with the exception that the mouthfeel is perhaps fuller and rounder.

April 22, 2019 - This is maturing into a really nice dry Riesling with lots of rich, penetrating, tropical and stone fruit, petrol undertones and bracingly acidic minerality at its core. It's deeply amber colored and was drinking well soon after drinking.

January 27, 2018 - Deep yellow colour. Nose with ripe yellow fruit, hint of tropical fruits, dried fruit, honey, and perfumed notes, some developed notes with petrol and smoke. Palate is dry (quite dry for a Riesling) with good weight and good concentration of fruit, citrus, some tropical fruit (passionfruit?), good acidity, mineral notes and a firm finish. Drinks well now, 90 p.
With its good weight in combination with fine balance, it is sort of typical for a Z-H when they are dry. Indice 1 = (fully) dry.
