Tasted blind. Apricot, lots of stone fruit character, and grapefruit notes on the nose. Nice acidity with peach, citrus/orange, more apricot, orange peel, and melon on the palate. Quite rich, yet also well balanced. Great finish and excellent wine. These 'M' need time...

Great fun next to a 1999 Riesling - the GV contrast is demonstrative. Not as full as expected yet the spine of acid and the citrus floral streak sits very well. Bit torn about where this might go. Definitely not closed thinking it may grow a bit more intense and yet benefit from another 2-3 years. private note says by 2012 - not sure I agree...

Citrus, lemon tart, spices. Nicely mineral and long finish.

Drank with GJE. Very powerful if not a bit overblown.

Grüner ! (groupe du mercredi, Bruxelles, Belgium, chez PM): note moyenne du groupe: 16,6/20
Nez violent, avec des agrumes, orange fumée (type pinot gris)
Bouche riche, dense et assez énergique (style Deiss).
