February 16, 2024 - deep golden to copper colour, nose and palate fully on the tertiary side, residual sugar mainly gone, 9,0% abv, some acidity still there, overall light and légère, still fascinating. From the very beautiful Avelsbacher valley in Trier.

March 8, 2019 - Wining Around New York; 3/6/2019-3/10/2019 (Various Venues, New York): Deep yellow/light golden. Fantastic mature Riesling aromas of petrol and stone fruit. Off dry, not sweet like most current Spätlese. Poised, superb palate feel despite light weight, outstanding acidity, and a rush of slate at the end. So, there you have it-another overperforming nearly 30 year old Riesling from an unheralded Mosel producer. Just amazing. One of the best wines we drank during our New York wine whirlwind.
