November 15, 2016 - Dry cork, no mold. Oxidized, brown color. Simple honey, brown sugar, and a bit of granny smith apples. Drink up.

May 9, 2010 - Just a great qpr, consistent with my last note, but I failed to mention the botrytis last time. Served with fried chicken and Indian-spiced rice.

August 6, 2009 - Deep golden color. Apricots & pineapples on the palate with a hint of toffee on the finish. Decent acidity keeps it in check. Not especially unctuous in texture. Went well with Thai chicken in coconut milk, with lemongrass and basil.

December 3, 2005 - With K&G. Appropriately sweet with luscious, peach and apricot, enough acid to balance. Finish with some burnt sugar. Less focused than expected for Eiswein, and seems botrytis-effected, so really more like a BA than an Eiswein. Nonetheless, enjoyable and good QPR at $13 paid.
