  August 5, 2023 - A terrific bottle, coming from what I and others thought might be an across-the-board decline in these 375s. But no! In fact, the richness and BA color of this rich auslese came together in a way that the prior bottles had not Given YCSO's comment and my prior tastings, it appears to be bottle variation now with advanced age possible But this was a treat, Very Rheinghau in presentation, showing a bit less complexity than a comparable Mosel auslese from this vintage, but oh so deep in concentrated apricot, dried tropical fruits and an orange zest overtone that keep the acid in balance, form

  June 24, 2022 - #01-93, 8.5% abv. From half-bottle. Somewhat advanced colour; this bottle certainly wasn't anywhere as good as my last bottle of this a few years ago. Tastes a little advanced on the palate too, with a relatively thinner texture, and even though there is still quite a bit to like here, I'm definitely disappointed in the context of my previous bottle of this. Somewhat uninspiring, without much complexity. Good balance between the sweetness and acidity.

  April 23, 2022 - Even better than the last bottle. Lots of complexity with honey, marzipan, and a spicy note.

  March 2, 2022 - From a half bottle. Golden color, good concentration, medium to long finish. Lots of apples, a little bit of honey and marzipan. Slightly less acid than I would prefer, but still alive.

  April 12, 2020 - Another wonderfully succulent, dark amber/brown evolution of auslese that only a master can sustain. Despite 1992 being a less stellar vintage, the notes reminded me a bit of the 1976's with age. Tons of apricot, burnt sugar, dark coffee, petrol, cumquat and those BA-type scents sing throughout the 375.
