No detailed notes. Recall a nice, limpid green-yellow color, a classic but simple nose, and a nicely balanced palate with good acidity. All in all a tasty wine but not exceptional.

PnP. Lime and slate on the nose. Light and fresh on the palate with slightly tart fruit, saline and a hint of honey. Modestly sweet finish with some minerality but not lots of acid - makes me believe this is at or just past peak. Recommend drink up. 89-90

Citrus (lemon / lime), white grapes (imagine that!), passionfruit, and a little banana with a hint of meringue. A tiny bit unctuous mouthfeel, which is in contrast to the spritzy effervescence of our favorite Rieslings, but nothing slimy or too oily - just a nice smooth texture. This must be on the upper end of the sugar spectrum for a Spatlese, or lacks the acidity to offset the sweetness because it seems more like an Auslese. Regardless of the classification, it's yummy.
Last bottle of '07 from this producer. :-( Bummer. Luckily their 2012 is damn good too.

Brass. Very mild lime nose with a hint of gasoline. Kiwi, lime, lanolin. Sweet with full, oily mouthfeel. Nice bitter stone finish. Very good. Update Day 3; still very pleasant and complex fruit profile, great mouthfeel. Lacking a bit of acidity leaving the finish a tad weak.

No detailed notes. Lovely, classic notes with lots of hydrocarbons and flowers. Great balance of acidity and slight sweetness.
