  Opened at Petrus in HK. Chilled, decanted and enjoyed over dinner.
  
  This was a bit more advanced than I thought it would be, quite oxidative in style and the colour was quite deep and golden. it took a bit of air to open up, and I'm glad we decanted it, and slowly began revealing notes of white flowers and honey and pears. However, there wasn't as much energy, tension and precision through the acidity that I was hoping for. Perhaps just not the style of dry Riesling that I prefer, despite the pedigree.
  
  Not enough experience with CsH to provide insight on aging potential. Honestly would stick with Keller GGs if given the choice - I genuinely think the winemaking's just better and certainly more my style.

  Wow, was ein junges spritziges und wildes Säureskelett springt mich da an - nicht vor 5 bis 10 J. Next Bottle. Respekt.

  10 years after Riesling tasting - 2013 (Restaurant Holz und Feuer, Kirchheim, Germany): Glass: Sophienwald Universal
  Drunk multiple times over 6h. Clear, medium golden color. Very deep and dense nose, beautiful.
  On the palate with enormous tension, power without being fat, high, racy acidity. Very elegant and balanced, wonderful salty core. Complex and long. Got better and better over time, not yet fully there, needs 5+ years to fully shine. Awesome wine in the making. 94+++

  lots of polyurethane, strong scent of white flowers, with flint underneath, almost a little orange blossom water and marmalade. Color was surprisingly golden. Acidity was high but already more ripe than expected.
