March 4, 2023 - Hint av petro som blåser vekk fort. Etter det after eight, kanskje marsipan, urter. I munnen deilig marsipan og mynte. Sødme og syre har gått opp i en høyere enhet og ingen av dem kjennes spesielt dominerende nå. Magiske greier.

January 9, 2016 - Typical Urtziger nose, with petroleum and ripe tropical fruits.
Palate shows a bit overripe fruit in this vintage, missing the cut and acidity balance I always get in this wine from other, cooler vintages, but still very nice.
Dr. Christoffel did a good job in saving this, and to manage to reach the quality this shows, despite the heat in 2003.
Enjoyable wine, but not a top vintage. -

October 25, 2011 - Developing nicely now a few years after the last bottle. Never is gonna be focused and linear, but showing secondary and petrol characteristics in addition to the peach-pit and stone fruit qualities. Finish is much better than I recall-apple pienand spice, really tasty. A good match for applesauce and mustard braised pork chops.
