  June 25, 2018 - Bright aromas of jasmine, pear, agave. Clean, with the flavors mirroring the aromas. Hints of agave and jicama. Refreshing summer Riesling.

  January 21, 2011 - Sweet smell of honey, nectarine and honeydew. Taste is not as good but pleasant enough. Still a little too sweet. Mouthfeel is thick. I was holding this to see what happens when the sweetness subsides and it's still very sweet. I should have held longer.

  March 7, 2010 - Deep golden color. Petrol and honeysuckle on the nose. Sweet and flabby, yes, but still an enjoyable mature Riesling.

  January 30, 2009 - Thick and golden in the glass. Tight nose when cold that opens more as the wine warms in the glass. Dominant petrol/paraffin wax on the nose with pear the dominant fruit, a hint of vanilla, and spice. Medium weight mouthfeel. Very smooth, almost creamy on the midpalate. Juicy attack of pear, lemon-lime, and spice, with a kiss of petrol. A bit flabby and somewhat lacking on the finish, but overall a nice wine for the price. (B-).
