May 25, 2017 - Popped and poured. Aromas of stone fruit and petrol. Apple flavors with oxidative notes. Apricot pit finsih.
Much better than my description makes it sound, but a little tired and probably on the down slope. Stood up well to a vinegar laden pork dish with asian spices. -

April 9, 2016 - Light golden, youngish in color and on the palate. Elegant nose, aromatically good stuff, lacks a bit in structure. This off-dry Riesling will be holding some more years, but won't get dramatically better.

June 15, 2012 - Showing deep honey and nutty qualities for being so young. Honey, nut, and a slight hint of petrol on the nose. Light texture, with serious complexity. High toned with a slight honey note and a small hint of peach, but predominantly lemon rind, nut and brown butter. A bit sweet considering the 13% abv, but good none-the-less.
Different, but by no means bad. May not be what you thought you would get from a Riesling, but exactly what one should expect from Clemens Busch (so I gather from some research on the winery).
Excellent wine. -

May 30, 2011 - This wine sucked. That is about all I can say, sorry Serge, but really didn't stand a chance with the burgs in attendance. Should have left this one at home and brought something more representative for Flo's contribution. live and learn :) I will get sh*t for this, I know it, but it should never have been at the table. No more non-wino's at wine dinners ! And my friend, if you stated in a note below that it lacked excitement, why share it with us??? bad boy, lol !!
