  February 6, 2020 - 13,5% alcohol.
  
  Medium-deep lemon-yellow color. Ripe, rather sweet-toned and somewhat developed nose with aromas of honeydew melon, some beeswax, light lemon marmalade tones, a hint of developed spicy character and a touch of dried herbs. The wine is dry, medium-bodied and fresh on the palate with precise flavors of steely minerality and wet stones, some bright and crunchy notes of white fruits, light apple tones, a little bit of honeycomb, a hint of ripe grapey fruit and an evolved touch of wizened citrus fruits and lemon curd. The high acidity keeps the wine balanced and well-structured. The finish is ripe, long and slightly sweet-toned with fresh flavors of tart green apples, some ripe white peach, light stony mineral tones, a hint of beeswax and a touch of dried herbs.
  
  A nice, balanced and pleasantly evolved Kerner. Not a wine to challenge a fine Riesling, but nevertheless works as a good substitute in a pinch, coming across something not unlike a well-made lower-tier Riesling with some age. I often find it hard to get interested on a Kerner, but this is such a well-made wine I just might.

  November 12, 2016 - light yellow at the eye, nose and palate deliver fresh white flowers and white fruit, basically green apples. Some acidity typical of the grapes. Complex and armonic taste. Best paired with tuna and salmon tartare at R&P's for his 59th

  June 26, 2016 - I really liked this little Nossing lass. For me she had a light , or white , floral nose which was most pleasant. But the wine itself had a wonderful creamy testure that starts off with a strong suggestion of sweetness and ends with a soft and dry finish. The fruit was lush and smooth. Lovely! I had this with a beautifully brined and grilled pork chops and the sweetness of the two married up in grand fashion.

  April 30, 2016 - only a shadow of how the 2008 vintage was. Maybe it is too young, or this 2013 is so different. Harsh, with unbalanced acidity and unpleaant overall taste. Let's wait for three years at least.
