Last bottle, and this is the first to show some aging, maybe it was ahead of the other bottles. The honey is noticeably lighter and this seems a bit dryer now, with the hints of lavender and petrol coming out as it warms from cellar temp. Not really an elegant finish but I think it has improved and this was the best bottle of the batch. I would say drink over the next 1-2 years.

Could not resist a restock under $9. These are holding up well... the sugar levels seem typical for 07. Previous notes ring true - not overly complex but a touch of honeyed fruit and pear... good with spicy foods.

Highly consistent with 6/15/2012 note, right down to the Thai food. A nice, simple riesling, decently-priced and well-made. These could rest for a little while, but there's no reason not to drink them now.

Beats a Kabinett from many better known producers. Fantastic QPR

Tangy and juicy, with classic notes of diesel and meyer lemon. Performs well above it's price point.
