The nose is all reduction and petrol. The palate features pretty classic Riesling notes of peach, apricot, and some citrus with a silky mouthfeel. Medium sweet but with just enough acidity to keep it in check.

Overpriced in the $50 range. Don't get me wrong, it's tasty: the funky petrol, macaroni, and sweet tarts somehow stay in harmony, and there's just enough acid to carry off the amped-up sweetness. I guess I just expected more zing or complexity or length. Or something. There's far better German Riesling at this price.

Böckser, verschlossen, gute Intensität und Länge, aber nicht so gut wie Lay Spätlese 2016, reichhaltige Frucht, spannende Aromatik, viele Früchte und Blüten

Drinks great right now. Delightful example of a Mosel spatlese. Who cares if it is way too young? - it tastes great

Refreshing with Thai food. Moderately sweet. Smooth finish.
