  Tasting and dinner with old wines from Kloster Eberbach (Kloster Eberbach, Rheingau): Light yellow colour. Nose with ripe citrus - lemon and grapefruit - with sun-warmed zest and lime, a hint of herbaceous notes and a discrete petroleum note, but surprisingly little petroleum for the age and vintage! Palate with a somewhat off-dry impression although it is produced in a "dry style", citrus, mineral, some mint, a rather oily impression, medium acidity; not entirely Riesling-styled on the palate. Better and younger than expected, can take more cellaring. 90 p
  Apparently not classified Erstes Gewächs, but produced in that style. The hot 2003 vintage has definitely put its mark on this wine.
