March 16, 2024 - Very good SL, but lacking the tension and precision of the great vintages. Beautiful aromas of yellow fruits and honey. The acidity has nearly gone so the sugar and fruits are dominant. Very good, but not in perfect balance for a higher score. 92-93 pts.

January 28, 2022 - Honey, pineapple, beeswax, mango, cardamom, Meyer lemon oil, and cream. Perfect with Szechuan peppercorns. Drink now through next 15 years

June 5, 2020 - Light golden color, low intensity.
Youthful, petrol, flint, smokey, grapy, citrus,
Medium body, low acid, slight bitterness, long aftertaste, high sweetness.
Well made, a bit on the sweeter side, nice consentration, still has some life left.
Tasted alongside 2003 Vollenweider Spätlese, and these to cold not have been more different. We guessed this wine was only 5-8ish years old.
