Lovely mature Riesling. Ripe stone fruit, candied lemon, honey, petrol, still a lot of bright acidity with balancing sweetness. It is a bit short on the finish, but at 17 euro this was a great QPR wine!
Edit: on day 2 this showed even better, with a longer finish, pineapple, mango and a great tension between sweetness and acidity.

Day 3 in the Mosel - Schaefer/Selbach-Oster/Prum (Mosel Saar Ruwer - Germany): From half-bottle. Johannes pulled this one out as more of an experiment. I thought the nose smelled like an old school vanilla cream soda. It also had a dollop of peach puree, and spearmint. I found this lovely and charming...Johannes says that the small bottle format has put the wine in a more advanced place than the regular bottle. Either way, it was pretty darn good!

A lovely clear refreshing taste of apples with a hint of sweetness make this a good appetizer or desert wine. May also pair nicely with delicate fish with cream sauces. Very refined taste. Not sure of price point since it was a gift. Will keep for 2-3 weeks after opening if evacuated and chilled.

Perfectly balanced, very light mouthfeel, nice acidity. Paired nicely with grilled pork. Will look for more.
