chefdilletante's tasting notes match my experience, although I didn't get as much acidity. Drink now for balance, versatility, and satisfaction, or wait for something deeper and wiser.

Big, musky/pungent, intense, lime-flesh/lime-oil, red & white-cherry, lavender, & violet. Beautifully clean apricot-y Botrytis. Creamy/slatey, nectarine & nectarine-skin, with a saline/mineral intensity. Finish & aftertaste is musky apricot, lime-flesh/zest. Great acidity - drinks like a big Spatlese, but I'm sure it's bordering on BA. Love the balance - 10.5% ABV - high acidity & RS. Big, elegant, complex, intense, & Beautiful!

(Merkelbach Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Auslese) ($26.00) A delirium of spice here! Peppermint and kiwi and scorched slate, a surmise of strawberry beneath an iridescent avalanche of spice and mint and slate.*

Still very good, perhaps better than my last tasting. Well balanced, it could last for years. What a bargain!
