  March 17, 2024 - Third of four bottles, two years since last tasting. Even darker yellow now, deep bouquet of saffron, ripe yellow apples, faint sting of chili. Acidity seems to be winding down a bit but will keep last bottle for a while longer for reference.

  February 20, 2023 - White grapefruit, peach skin, and herbs on the nose. The palate was a little broad for a Kabinett, and a bit unfocused too, although there was a fresh acidity just not one that pulled the mid-palate together. There's a bit of bitter grapefruit pith flavor that distracts on the finish. On day 2, however, this has really shaped up! The palate had settled into a rounder mouth feel, with yellow apple and a core of zingy acid, just what you hope for in aged Riesling. Give this some more cellar time or if opening now, plenty of air.

  January 29, 2022 - Dark golden yellow, hint of green. On the nose strong saffron, yellow apples, syrup. On the palate fresher than expected, somewhat thick, enjoyable now but should develop further.
