January 3, 2024 - Totally integrated, all as earlier notes with the addition of total integration, this had a strange nose and taste initially similar to new tyres, very odd but it blew off in around 15 minutes and this was a classic spatlese.

August 6, 2022 - Love this wine.
Light golden color.
Intense and so appealing nose, with strong petrol, lime and exotic fruit.
Light body, slight sweetness but not at all obtrusive and balances well the crisp acidity. Flavours of exotic fruits; cooked pineapple, mango and orange peel. Energetic, intense, all in balance, excellent length. highly pleasurable.
I love it. -

December 27, 2020 - Still bright, still showing those attributes that make this such an easy wine to drink, subtle perfectly balanced and years ahead of it judging by this bottle, a little sweet for me but I am nitpicking here.

August 2, 2020 - Two years on from the last bottle, pale lemon colour green rim, stone fruits and citrus on the nose, on the palate peaches apricots bit of orange perfect balance some length, the sweetness is perfectly balanced by the acidity which is hardly noticed as light as a feather, lovely wine.

December 29, 2018 - Apricot peach on the nose with some apple acidity, same in the mouth , sweet intense but balanced and a long smooth finish, as someone else in their notes on this Riesling said “a real crowd pleaser” a better bottle than the J J Prum 2003 auslese on this night.
