Pineapple, melon, and elderflower on the nose and the palate. Sugar is balanced by good acidity and minerality. Was fantastic with green curry duck that had a a little heat.

Peach and wet gravel on the nose, with slight petrol. On the palate this is sweet, with mangos, citrus, and peach followed by some minerality. This has a good level of acid to balance the sweetness of the wine. At 13 years old, this wine is still vibrant. I suspect it has many years left.

Thanks Mike for sharing. This has an alluring mineral-laden nose, unctuous mouthfeel and lively flavors of peach, chalk and limestone. Sweet but balanced by lively acids with a long, dry stoney finish. Really lovely.

Lovely, typical young Riesling aromas; apple, citrus, minerals, flowers, and perhaps some spices. Quite concentrated and intense. Very well balanced, lovely, intense tickling acids, a hint of sweetness to balance the acids, medium full, just right. Quite long finish with apple and some tropical fruit and obvious minerals. Very god wine, especially price taken into consideration.

More 2007 Spatlesen (Vin Vino, Palo Alto): Fragrant with citric tones. Light and bright at first with zingy acidity and strong scent of orange rind. Moderate sweetness, picks up weight, honeyed botrytis notes, and evergreen at the end.

Marked petrol on nose. Bit of effervescence. Juicy with ample acid. Good stuff.
