    September 14, 2023 - Last of 6, pnp, perfect level, soaked cork, surprisingly little changed since 2016, lightish gold maybe, but perfectly balanced fruit flavours still energetic, lovely balance and fine lift, no upside but no rush. VF (18.5).......little changed from open bottle on second night.

    September 24, 2022 - Really a wonderful aged Auslese with just a touch of sweetness left. Quite layered with rich apricot fruit and tons of minerals and petrol flavors. Finishes quite complex and fresh with tangy tangerine and green notes. Lovely now but will go longer...

    December 10, 2018 - Deep golden colour. Intense nose of passionfruit, peach and a petrol note, that is distinctly intenser than a previous bottle two years ago. On the palate great poise between the long and intense fruit of passionfruit, mango, peach and the petrol note. All in all it is still a real fruit bomb, but the elegance and complexity I remember is not there from this bottle. Still outstanding, but I'm not sure how it will evolve in the future. However the cork has to be replaced if it is cellared for many more years, because the corks are fully soaked despite textbook cellaring. 5/13/19/8

    November 18, 2016 - 5th of 6, pnp but drunk over 3 days, perfect level but damp cork, previous notes very fine and this bottle no exception, absolutely a point and a touch fresher than last weeks #24 of same vintage, very long and complex, the perfect aperitif!
