Still a very golden riesling that is drinking well - I get honey, pipeapple, abricot and grape - but this no petroleum - the wine still has a very oxidative expression (mature apple and pear), which I like - still a nice acidity and a good balance - this is indeed a complex wine and I am between 93 and 94 - will go back to large 93 this time because the oxdative expression was a bit higher this time - which tells me that you should not keep this wine for to long - still have 1 bottle left.

You get a lot of fruits - its red cherries also hint of strawberries and raspberries - we also get - we are also getting forrest floor, wood and some menthol - a nice balance - tannins are medium - acidity is a bit higher - but not affecting the balance - for me the wine is at the moment a bit closed - not giving so much - it is a well made wine - and I will start with 92.

A light and refreshing wine - with a good balance - nothing to and from my last rating still 92.
