2003 Dry Riesling - Ten years after: Interesting colour, deep yellow with some green, like a faded photo. In the nose, it's slightly flat with some honey, nuts, Mango, Apple, a touch of orange. On the palate, it seems a bit worn out, yet nicely mineralic, almost dry with only mild sweetness. Quite nice.

Initially it seemed tired but it got better with air. The wine retains a nice core of acidity but there's not much to balance that against. Besides the acidity the dominant flavor was a burnt marzipan.Not much on the nose. Balanced and a decent finish. Definitely seems to be on a downhill slope and probably would have been better a couple of years ago when I bought it. A Rudi Wiest import.

This has lost most of its fruit now, and has a wonderful petrol and mineral nose. It's almost dry, and probably won't age well much longer. Drink now.
