October 31, 2022 - Masterclass Kühling-Gillot / Battenfeld-Spanier (Restaurant De Scheepskameel, Amsterdam, NL): A very satisfying Wurzelecht, elegant and playful, fresh and intense, on its plateau of maturity, complete and confident, ripe citrus, perfectly balanced, perfect weight, perfectly integrated acidity, very good resonance and length. Confidence and charm.

September 15, 2018 - 96+pts. This was even better than the first bottle I drunk. Absolutely breathtaking! At the very top among dry Riesling in Germany.

November 29, 2017 - Tastings in Italy and Germany - November/December 2017; 11/23/2017-12/1/2017 (Rome/Bernkastel/Cochem/Herborn): This was a bottle I was eager to drink, since it is a very limited production Riesling from perhaps the best Red Slate soil in all of Germany. This 2014 was chosen by Gault&Millau as the top dry Riesling choice for that vintage, and it didn't disappoint one bit, having won this tasting by a whisker over the Hermannshöhle.
Notes of pineapple, lime and lemon peel were discernible. This is on the palate ample and round - nothing is sticking out. It has great intensity, balanced acidity and a long finish which leaves you reaching for more. But its calling card is its striking elegance - it dances on the palate, and is never cloying. I'm sure this bottle will still improve further with time (and I don't intend to open my other one until 2019), but it is already a stunner now. 95+pts.
