    May 19, 2023 - Straw. Same notes as previous bottle. They changed something since the early 90th maybe in their winemaking. This wine seems to age much more slowly than other earlier vintages I had, which is not a good thing in my opinion. Nice but lacking intensity to be outstanding. I agree with Salil. 5/11/17/10

    November 27, 2022 - Straw. Yellow prunes, honey with flowers, pine and petrol. On the palate it shows great balance with well integrated sweetness and acidity. What is missing here? Well somehow it lacks the intensity. It seems not only light, but almost a bit thin given its pedigree and Prädikat. Still youthfull with some CO2. It will change and ripen for years, maybe decades, but I don't believe that it gets better. 5/11/17/10

    June 15, 2018 - 5th of 9, pnp, perfect cork and level, still youthful and little changed from last bottle in 15, stunning and much better than the 01s. VF+ (19).

    July 3, 2015 - 4th of 9, previous notes very fine and this bottle even better, simply the most stunning Summer aperitif and at most interesting and complex on third night after opening, so still a baby really, just shows how good these top 99s can be! Very fine plus (19/20).
