November 18, 2018 - Note: I use a rating scale for which 85 represents a very good wine.
Perhaps a little past its prime, but still thoroughly enjoyable. Pretty traditional spatlese palate.
December 31, 2009 - A fully mature Riesling. Nicely balanced, just as a hint of sweetness. Can't imagine that any more time in the bottle will matter much. Opened up a little through the bottle.
Also, lots of sediment in this one. No need to decant, just be careful about handling the bottle before and during serving.
April 29, 2009 - Bon Voyage Bodega Bistro Binge for Christine Huang (Bodega Bistro, San Francisco, CA): Focused, spicy, baked peach and mineral nose; poised, nice, tart apricot, mineral palate with depth; medium finish
November 26, 2008 - "Low-key" Pre-Thanksgiving Wine Dinner (The Plumed Horse Restaurant, Saratoga, California): Bright medium canary yellow color; lovely petrol, apricot and lemon nose; tasty, delicate and refined, medium-sweet citrus, grapefruit, baked lemon and mineral palate; medium-plus finish 92+ pts.
