November 21, 2023 - From magnum, this was a perfect window to drink. Really creamy in the mouth with peaches and lovely acidity. Not a typical vintage but the format really helped. Served as a post-dinner refresher and it was extremely popular. Not one to age, but enjoy. This was 93-94pts but I imagine regular bottles will be a few notches lower. 94pts

September 5, 2021 - Drank last nite with our Afghan dinner in Copake. Light gold color.
There's peach, apricot and lime here. Good minerality, not as sweet as I had expected. Good acidity, dry finish. Nice. -

12/5/2004 (link)(Donnhoff Niederhauser Hermansholle Spatlese) This was much sweeter than normal and definetly did not have the acidity I would expect. Minerals, pineapple and red fruits on the nose with a beautifully elegant palate and a long finish. Great material but I wish it had more acidity
