Fragrant tropical and classic Riesling flavors balanced by substantial acidity. Long finish. Held up to, and was a good match to, Asian-style short ribs, cutting through the rich meat flavors.

I usually love the Moenchberg of Ostertag, but not so much this vintage. Slightly sweet, with a small but clear touch of botrytis, a bit like certain Austrian Rieslings. Lacks a bit of complexity. Still a very good wine.

Interesting but showing too much alcohol and ripe notes. On the downslope, I think.

Honey, ginger and apple. Good acidity. Bit of a whiff of petrol on nose.
