Uncovered two more of these in the cellar. Definitely worth drinking in the next few months - still enjoyable but doubt it will stay that way for much longer.

This one better than the last. The same rich, straw yellow colour but more honeysuckle and indeed honey on the nose and a thicker, more glycerol-like mouth coating when tasted. Great length, good rounded fruit too. I wouldn't be holding for much longer though. I still have some 2003 left though.

Stashed away at the back of the cellar after a trip to Baden several years ago, this bottle had been forgotten (it has a twin too, and a couple from 2003). It's straw yellow with a light nose. It's definitely past its best but is still good to drink - good length, lightly acid, a little vanilla, some honeysuckle too. Doesn't fill the mouth but nonetheless enjoyable.

Quite powerful, real substance and texture. Roasted nuts and quince, mellow and long and outstanding with food.
