January 16, 2023 - Classic lime and mineral/petrol notes on the nose, with a juicy mouthful of citrus and starfruit. Nice with Thai food.

June 11, 2020 - 8% alcohol. Light yellow; aromatic with delicate pear, slight floral; palate is medium bodied, elegant, off-dry (about right for spatlese), medium acidity, white fruit and slight minerality, but lacks vibrant excitement; finish is medium length. Enjoyable, well balanced, certainly more full of character than other riesling producers, but not quite at the threshold to make it into my cellar for aging. 89
