Single blind tasting Aromatics high. Petrol. Orange zest followed by orange blossom. Spices, likely lime leaf Palate has medium + acid. No phenolics. Medium alcohol. Linear mouthfeel with a consistent core of acid and fruit. Pear, orange zest and spice. Finish has long length. Balanced Dry glass notes of lime oils, flowers and herb resin Drinks well now, but no hurry. I suspect this will age better than me.

Deep gold color Intense aromatics of Meyer lemon/ lime and orange zest and blossom with honey/cardamom/ yellow flowers and dry earth - extremely complex and all wrapped together with moderate petrol notes - outstanding Strong mouthcoating palate with flavors of ripe lemon and lime and nice underlying minerality Medium plus acidity with mild phenolic bitterness and medium alcohol with really nice length Really well balanced but quite intense Beautiful to drink now but appears eternal based on tasting today

In a nice place and taking on pectic nuances to add to the earlier noted green herb/asparagus notes as it evolves. No rush if not for the longest haul. Till 2024.

Very much as per my December '19 note. Impressive. Plenty of time for further evolution if perhaps not a higher point score. Till 2024 at least and quite possibly beyond.

Drinking well now. Some viscosity, lots of green herb, asparagus etc backing up the core juicy white cherry and physalis fruit. Good acidity for balance. Fullish bodied with a long dry finish. Excellent. Another wine at its peak but (typical of fine Riesling) with potential for further evolution albeit probably no more points. Now and say up to 15 years from vintage.

According to WS this can be store untill 2032. But drinks really good right now. Will develope more secondary flavours if stored. Nice nose. Nice grape note in the finish.

Sitrus, fersken, apsparges og svalt petro på nese. Sammensatt munnfølelse, god balanse og frisk mineralitet. Lang finsh. Etter en times tid i karafell blåser fersken aromaen bort og en lime preget nese blir mer dominerende.

Citrus, asparagus, passion fruit, very dense with good length, in its drinking window, can go on for years.

Drinking nicely now, but you can tell it still can go a long way. I'd recommend giving it 6-8 years before opening another bottle

Rocking dry Riesling. Mineral, light fruit and happiness. Big, classic riesling, with a long smooth finish. Touch of tannin.
