August 2, 2014 - Everything one might want in a Mosel Riesling in this price range. Great acid and nicely balanced. Slate, honeysuckle, citrus, and hints of honeydew melon. Rich, full, delicious! 90-91.

September 4, 2013 - Unscrewed and poured. Color straw. Nose with pear and minerals. Swishing shows good texture, decent acidity and fruit. Sipping shows light fruit and smooth finish. First night open had a distinct metallic wang on the finish that resolved after a night in the fridge. Good not great value at $17

August 18, 2012 - Eurocentric Trade Tasting; 8/17/2012-8/18/2012: Pretty nose with floral notes and citrus. The palate has nice balance and length. Appealing wine at a good price.

June 22, 2012 - Structured, pleasant, mineralic. Green and yellow apples, quite a bit of petroleum. The wine is somewhere between a trocken and kabinett and I'm having difficulties with the "mix" in styles as the fruit lacks enough ripeness to balance the alcohol.
