  This is in a prime drinking stage!

  Leads with peach or nectarine or even cherry on the nose and in the mouth, good minerality on the core, decent length on a combo of acidity and slight residual sugar. Is off-off-dry a thing? This is nice while also missing that intense minerality and bracing acidity I look for in a Saar riesling.

  Pop'n pour
  Nose > Lime-flesh, grapefruit & lemon-oil, white-nectarine, lavender, apricot, lime-creme, red-cherry &
  limestone on-the-rocks.
  With air adds creamy nectarine-skin, violet, a hint of Chartreuse & some pungent musk.
  Palate > Big rich firm mouthful.
  Lemon-oil, lime-flesh, creamy white nectarine, crystallized citrus-pith, apricot/tart-apricot, Morello & Rainier cherry.
  Adds richness, some riper orchard fruit, powdered minerals & a subtle yet powerful creamy nectarine-skin/skin-contact background element w/air.
  Great, integrated, ripe acidity. Med++ intensity, depth & length.
  Drinks off-dry.
  More quietly impressive than exuberant, & may warrant upgrade w/air ... if it lasts long enough!
  Still getting better as bottle ran dry.
  (94+)

  Very upfront sugar and acidity. Melon and lime, great balance. A lovely wine coming into its drinking window

  This seemed very reticent. The nose was very little expressive but in the mouth, on the second day, it showed this mouthfilling off-dry fruit and minerality with multiple aromatic dimensions. Excellent but less luminous than the Saarfeilser GG 2015 and the Fass 1 2018. Will probably improve with some years.
