1997 vintage. Last tasted 9.4.25 (9.2). This time, tasted with @Pinotman /// Andreas. Nice fill and good cork (no Durand needed). Light-medium body. 12% ABV. Some lighter, barely-sweet petrol flavor but limoncello impressions started to take the stage and sing like the headliner. Really intriguing and fascinating as a “dry” Auslese. Should be able to perform at this clip for another 4-5 years. No April Fools joke here. 5 bottles left at $80 a pop. 4.1.26. — 6 days ago

A delightful, balanced Riesling with two decades of age. Sweet perfume of stone fruits and flowers, with a hint of sought after petrol. Amazing that such an age-worthy white is so reasonably priced. 10.5% ABV. Enjoyed the 2006 vintage with a lovely Chicken Francese from Vittorio’s in Pacific Palisades. — 3 months ago

This wine shows bright, crunchy freshness with notes of alpine cough drops, fresh green herbs, and a touch of petrol. The palate is taut and mineral-driven, layered with lime zest and green apple, grapefruits. A saline, slatey undercurrent adds depth and tension, leading to a clean, mouthwatering finish. A precise and expressive Mosel Riesling with real energy and character. — 5 months ago

After some air, bouquet really opens up. Lemons mist, lavender fields, grapefruit zest.

Lemon oil, clementine juice, minerality, sure. But I’m getting just more of that supple, sunny, citrus and gushing Elysian meadows — a year ago

Legally trocken, yet oh so creamy and rich. Beautiful. — 5 months ago

Vintage 2020 | First day of spring. Intanticide perhaps, but jolly good now. Palle yellow. Smell with pear and Guadeloupe melon. Schist. Powerfull balanced taste with high bitters and blood orange zeste. Lovely wine, says the wife. Happy wife, happy life! Paired with chicocery with ham and vacherin mont d’or cheese from the oven and topped with spring onion and truffle. Find it and put some bottles in your cellar. — a year ago

Ripe, round and mature. Lovely mouthfeel, not bonedry.
Lacking some acidity, finishes slightly short and bitter. — a year ago
