Slightly oxidized and heading over the top, but once it warmed up a touch you could feel the class of the fruit in your mouth. Perfect with food. Absolutely delicious even with that hint of overdevelopment. My last bottle was fresher.

Riesling Rampage: Developed aromas of butterscotch, toast, some earth and mint. Palate has some decent acid remaining but the broadness is starting to overwhelm. Holding up better than the 1995 it was served next to, but drink now based on this bottle.

Stunning wine. Clear, slightly deep gold. Wonderful complex nose of rich lime, steel/mineral and a floral edge. The palate was epic. Rich, complex, mouth-filling and yet drying, moreish and with huge length. Plenty of fruit and acid for this to go on for another 5 years easy. My White Wine of the Year so far.

Touch short on the finish but otherwise very nice. Still very youthful with no signs of the fruit fading, will go for quite some more time. Balanced flavour profile.

Golden colour. Honey, touch of florality and some toast. Palate has great acid structure still. Very good.
