December 18, 2020 - Hazy notes from last night. Lovely purity in this wine, more of an old school kabinett in that it was barely off dry and quite refreshing, with the fruit mainly in the citrus and stone fruit realm, along with slate notes (A-).
October 30, 2020 - Nice fruit. Shows a musky earthiness in the finish. Holding up well.
October 19, 2018 - Grassy light yellow. Fine nose of passionfruit, white peach and nectarine tied together with a stony note. Lively acids, white peach, stones and flint, line and length. A good kabinett, the fruits possibly starting to fade so perhaps good to drink up in the next few years before the acid dominates.
June 5, 2018 - I was surprised by the rich profile and that it was less light on its feet than expected, then realized it was a Graacher rather than Wehlener. Really enjoyable but if I had another I'd wait a few more years. Decent match with sauteed salmon, better on its own before and after.
April 13, 2018 - A very nice Kabinett that was a great match for Chinese food. It was exhibited apple, some slate and floral notes - all in a light and refreshing way.
November 8, 2015 - Smells of fresh citrus, yellow apple, apricot.
Initial attack is right on point, so amazing it's almost effervescent, lively and fruity.
What follows is a great fruity, clean, fresh apple, slightly tart riesling. High acid and long finish. Leaves you wanting another glass.
Hits on all chords just slightly chilled below cellar temp.
Wish I had more of these

December 25, 2011 - Nose of mint, palate of grapefruit pith, mint, creamy mouthfeel, good acidity, drink or hold.
November 18, 2011 - has become an outstanding wine. At 7 years it's showing it's depth. Richer yellow not yet gold, a floral nose which is no longer subtle as I described at my last tasting in 2007. A freshness with good balance still with a hint of sweet apple perhaps even a touch of apricot. Long finish. Beautifully paired with a salad of salmon and quinoa.
April 3, 2011 - Weak bottle? All there but lacking some verve.
March 23, 2011 - Green apples, slate, minerals, white flowers, hint of spritz.
