  January 22, 2021 - powerfull version of the rieslings of Mosell Saar, with still a big amount od SO2 there :) nose of sulfur reduction mixed with exotic ripe fruits, I think of a big bright sauv blanc from sancerre there... A la Dagueneau... palate is tight and sharp with a strong body to it in the mid palate. long and stylish finish... a baby wine on its way of greater time for sure. need to try that in 5/8 years from now...

  September 29, 2020 - Sampled during afternoon service at Oinoscent, courtesy of a customer.
  The wine is flinty, preserved lemon, grapefruit, quince, sugar, pastry, apple and pear pulp, pear cider.
  In the palate, the wine shows high acidity, mineral, lime,lemon, shows power, feels off-dry, really young, long finish.
  Outstanding

  June 28, 2019 - Quite closed, but very promising.
  
  Minerality in such nuances!
  Smoke & crushed slate.
  Very balanced even at this early stage with so much potential to open up!

  November 23, 2018 - Tasted after 2017 Riesling Alte Reben. A lot less expressive at this stage, very delicate on the nose, lots of depth, hints of herbs, spices, crushed stones, white and yellow stone fruit. On the palate very mineral, powerful, lots of acidity, very dense, very vibrant, super length. 92-93+
