  January 1, 2019 - Much better than two years ago. Classic aged Riesling nose. Great height, kerosene, lemons and lychees. Mouth of lemon meringue, guava with a hint of caramel apple. Good acid on a green apple skin finish. Thought this wouldn’t age so well - I was wrong- May still develop over next five years or so.

  November 23, 2017 - Redolent diesel, asphalt, motor oil, sea salt, and applesauce. Love it. The fruit is spread out in the mouth, and maybe getting a little tired. Age has done nice things to this wine; there is an elevation of complexity and secondary character. This should be consumed fairly soon though given the fruit.

  February 8, 2013 - straw color indicating its age; petrol and lime on nose. Most notable in this bottle was the licorice finish. Acid and fruit nicely balanced, but will tire in 12-18 months. Drink up

  January 18, 2013 - I like this; sightly muted nose opens up with petrol and slight citrus notes on swirling. Mid-length palate with good depth of flavors; as commented elsewhere, closer to Oz than anywhere else. acidity nicely balanced with greenish fruit. Tempted to rate it higher - will see after longer opening

  December 27, 2012 - Solid riesling drinking nicely. closer to Australian than Mosel or Alsace. touch of sweetness. good with spicy food.
