It doesn't remind me of a Sauv Blanc. It really tastes like a delicious, dry Semillon from Hunter Valley. Checkin out Vinos de Mexico — 9 years ago

Always a delightful drink, this is not my favorite vintage of this wine but it's still very enjoyable. From knarly, old, head pruned melon vines in the Dundee Hills next to Domaine Drouhin — 9 years ago

Wow, this shows the extreme difference between botrytis infected👎(inflected) 👎wines and non. Last night, 97 knoll, Gruner Smargd. Tonight, 97 Prager Riesling Smargd ( non botrytis inflected/ infected)
What a frickin delish non infected wine. Prager; absolutely gorgeous after 18 years! Bright yellow with incredible depth of fruit while still having amazing acidity at this age. The Knoll , While drinkable, was past its prime.
sign me up for Prager, Niholiahof & Alzinger (among others) — 9 years ago

Wow. Last night it was the 1997 Knoll Gruner Smaragd Gruner. Very botrytis infected (inflected)
Tonight it's the Prager 1997 Riesling Smaragd. What a huge difference! Non botrytis Riesling from a great site/ 18 years old and still Holding. The difference is amazing the Knoll with the botritis lwas past its prime, the Prager or can still go another 5+ — 9 years ago

Well aged Gruner from a legendary vintage

Probably would have been better at five years ago but Knoll Likes is a bit of botrytis
Like a dry SGN


Delish for its historic perspective. Dry but almost like a dry SGN — 9 years ago
