Opened with friends and was paying more attention to company than the wine. Still delicious though. Nice harmony and a sense of seamlessness of the flavors. More mellow than in its youth but still with excellent acid punch. Very nice. No rating due to my poor memory but definitely enjoyed this.

Penultimate bottle from a 6 pack, last consumed this wine about 18 mos prior. Still quite refreshing as the wine hits it's 8th birthday, showing off citrus and orchard (green and red apple) fruits alongside white pepper, chalk, a hint of beeswax, flint, and slate. The wine has a snappy finish with firm acidity, and nice mineral streak, and citrus fruits for miles. Lovely, drink through 2023+.

4th of 6 bottles, last tasted 1 yr ago. This Riesling checks in at 12% abv, and appears to be dry (or almost dry) on the palate. Floral, orchard fruits, red apple, melon, tangerine, white pepper, and chalky rocks. A sting of acidity on the palate, literally a citrusy zing, puckering the jaws, lasting 30 secs. Drink now through 2023.

Bottle #3 of 6, this is a very pretty 12% abv Riesling. Dried apricot, peach, drizzled honey, and soil. A tad bit of warm plastic, some white pepper. Just really delicious, white orchard fruits and almond paste. Tense acidity, longish finish. Drink now through 2024+.
