2017. Classic feel, honey richness almond and unique savory flavors — 5 years ago
Plenty of botrytis to make things interesting. Would blind guess sauternes all day long. — 9 years ago
’04 was a cooler, higher acid vintage with limited botrytis. Nevertheless, this ABTSBERG Beerenauslese was tasting like true AMBROSIA, meaning “the nectar of the gods”. This heavenly Ruwer Riesling is quite drinkable now in a half bottle, but still has years of life left in it. You could pair it with a fruit-based dessert, but really it is dessert all by itself:-) — 10 years ago
Sugary sweet notes of strawberry and raspberry jam. Lightly acidic, tart finish that keeps it from being too cloying. Fantastic dessert wine. — 8 months ago
Lovely Riesling. Easy drinking, great acidity, ripe fruit: apple, pear, some pineapple, intense long finish. — 9 years ago
En magnum, mine — a year ago
The grand finale! Dad brought this. I tasted apricot and agave. Tasting notes were marmalade and barley sugar. I can’t say I could pin “barley sugar” but I am stashing that descriptor for future tastings 🤪 — 3 years ago
Lush with honey and melon. Lovely! — 6 years ago

Nose is gods apricot perfume. An echo of botrytus. Like apricot flower.
Palate is apricot silk. Liquid pleasure. Sick. Perfect balance. Texture is just enough to announce itself. Not gloopy. Such perfect acidic balance.
A last whiff on earth candidate. If you have money you need to own this. You need to own a lot of this. It’s perfect.

Absolutely delightful with a cheese and dessert. Crispy caramel & honey. — 9 years ago
Vintage 2006 - Top of luck, but so difficult to describe this perfection. Heavenly sweetness totally in balance because it also has acidity. Some apricot, some butter, creamy. Just awesome. Festive bottle. Combined with green salad and quail mousse. #riesling #rieslingforever #beerenauslese — 9 years ago
