Lighter than expected, great tertiary notes — 3 years ago
Blinded a dear buddy in the wine trade on this tonight, guesses all over the place, in a great spot, want to see this in 10+Y.
72H Update:
Nose has crushed blackberries, ripe plum, dried plum, dried tart cherries, moist mahogany and faint moist soil. Palate has tart plum, light molasses, blackberry compote, faint leather notes and fine tannins. Not as good as day one, but no slouch on day three. A wonderful experience, many years in the bottle to go ahead. — 5 years ago


I’m not usually one to be a Chardonnay advocate but this one was a solid choice to pair with an overconsumption of pork dumplings. Not too buttery, teak wood, silky suede. — 6 years ago
Solid wine for price. Drinking great after 13 years!

Very smooth right away, gets better after open. More spice than fruit. Would love to get an old vine bottle from these vines in 20 years. — 8 years ago

2018 vintage. Bottle #1016 Beautifully crafted Riesling with a full palate , fruit forward. — 5 years ago
Drank in the beginning of the year. Missed out on adding my notes here. Best bottle of the lot I brought back to Malaysia. So dense. Like the rows in the vineyard, the finish is long and lined with chalk. The herbal elements in this wine just takes me back to days in the vineyard. Emotional really, especially in times like this. Hope to be back in Abtserde next year. — 6 years ago

The nose was full of petrol and I thought of 100% riesling. I strongly like this wine though it confused me once grape was revealed. Lemon curd ? Then the palate is quite high acid and a bit tart. Extreme length with Aubépine notes and cut grass. I genuinely liked this wine — 7 years ago

Lots of jammy fruit, less peppery. It really fleshes out well over a couple of hours. Good everyday value. — 6 years ago
