    April 17, 2020 - Drank along side a 2016 Von Winning. Don't know that I had a favorite because they were both delicious for different reasons. This would answer the question of whether or not you like older or younger Rieslings'.

    January 12, 2019 - Perfectly mature riesling with exuberant notes of yellow fruit and petrol. Keeps the freshness quite good despite being a bit alcoholic in the nose.

    August 18, 2017 - Below average. Somewhat past its peak. Drink up.

    August 20, 2016 - Light nose of yellow straw... paille jaune, nice lenght, apple, exotic fruit.

    May 13, 2016 - On the first evening absolutely not me. Very alcoholic, rather featureless, besides alcohol rather mute aromas and surely in-harmonious.On top quite sweet. Maybe 84 points. On the second and even more on the third day much more aromatic (lemons, lemongrass, very ripe kiwi). Then it was really rich, even vital and put much more weight on the scale. Still too much alcohol and a bit too sweet for my tongue. Anyway, very surprising shift indeed.
