February 9, 2024 - Quite nice dessert wine. Deep beautiful golden color. Nose of some type of spring flower like jonquils or hyacinth. as well as the botrytis smell. On the palate, I get mandarin orange, white pepper and gasoline. Has a bit of a sweet and sour finish to it. Nice acidity. I have another bottle I will sit on for another five years but could go a pretty long time I suspect.

June 10, 2022 - Color: medium gold with canary yellow
Nose: kumquat, mandarin peel, gasoline, ripe each
Palate: medium-high acidity, medium-high sugar, oily medium-full body. Somehow balanced. Aromas confirm the nose. It is just starting to show some raisinated notes on the palate
Finish: long
Excellent liquid dessert, very fun. I think age able as well. Not miles deep but a great sweet Riesling -

May 24, 2020 - Excellent, complex, looking for more. Interesting pairing with American wagyu filet. Really brought out a peach note. I think I might order something similar again with wagyu. Worked really well.
