  December 31, 2023 - I love the aromatics of Riesling!
  This had been stored for 2 years in my cellar and was now very lovely. Not as much acidity as most German Rieslings have, but that was not expected. Smooth, slight hints of honey, petroleum, grass and maybe peach?

  March 14, 2021 - Tasting four (rather) dry Alsace Rieslings at home: The most perfumed wine upon opening of our line up of four random Alsatian rieslings. A little bit more luxuriously complex nose than the others, which I later chalk up on the account of some old oak barrel élevage and some residual sugar. There is a soaplike riesling aroma (no petroleum) - green apples, lime peel, peaches and lemon. Also some damp cellar and later on browned apple core.
  
  At first rather spritzy but also tell tale big mid palate with a grassy and slightly bitter mineral finish. At first it does not really mesh, but 12 hours later the parts start to integrate in the glass and this is lovely to a fish soup. It balances between dry and off-dry. A food wine that needs some time in the cellar but is expressive now as well.

  March 12, 2021 - Håller med tidigare noteringar om att smaken inte hänger med doften. Lite platt och kort eftersmak. Det är en god riesling men jag hade väntat mig mer. Lite mer smak dag två så jag lämnar en flaska i källaren några år så kanske den blir mer sammansatt.

  March 5, 2021 - Funkade inte riktig vinlagringsskåpskallt på ca 13 grader utan mycket bättre några grader kallare där doften var riktigt bra men smaken inte riktigt hängde med.
  
  Den härliga doften domineras av mango, saffran, fläder, selleri, gummi och inte direkt petroleum utan lite mer som en gammaldags bilverkstad. I smaken lite av samma men så kort att det är lite svårt att identifiera de enskilda smakerna. Bra som kallt balkongvin men inte mer än så. Ca 86 p men hade smaken följt doften hade det varit över 90.
