December 11, 2017 - Asperger Wine Syndrome Group Tasting Round (Private Location): Heard some spectacular things about this particular wine from Christoffel but unfortunately this bottle couldn’t fulfill my high expectations. A bit one dimensional with lots of white fruit and a hint of dextrose on the nose. Fine and elegant palate but I miss the fireworks completely. Good but absolutely not great. Maybe just not a perfect bottle?

December 11, 2017 - Asperg Wine Syndrome Tasting Group: My next try with Christoffel. Fully developed nose was full of petrol, a bit muted and not overly complex, compared to the 1983 Domprobst before.
On the palate off-dry, medium+ acidity, perfectly integrated. Lots of fine, juicy yellow fruit, some bitter notes, typical slate notes. Not as complex as the Domprobst, but also very good, fine and elegant. Medium+, echoing length. Maybe not an optimal bottle, but still: 90-91 -

November 13, 2016 - Lys strågul. Behagelig, søtlig duft med litchi, eplekjeller, grapefrukt, tropiske toner og bare et lite streif av petroleum. Pent utviklet på smak, lett oljete munnfølelse, behagelig avdempet sødme. Elementer av litchi, grapefrukt og ananas smører munnhulen på behagelig vis. Pent balansert med leken syrestruktur og svakt krydrete toner i avslutningen. Lekker sak som drikker meget bra nå.

October 1, 2016 - After eight, fløte, veldig delikat hint av petro. I munnen kakao og plommer - kombinerer sødme og bitterhet. Lett og elegant for en
Auslese. Deilig vin, ikke superkomplisert, men heller ikke til å bælme. Litt kort i ettersmaken. -

I'd say this wine is past peak and on the way down.
