Tasted blind. Medium light ruby garnet , with quite a wide garnet rim . Quite closed at first , some ripe cherry , strawberry notes , touch of spice , quite discreet , touch earthy . On the palate this has a bit more sweet red fruits , earthy , lightly dusty . Quite charming and elegant , not a big wine but there are slightly grippy tannins and quite fresh acidity , balanced alcohol . Quite good sappy , earthy finish, with a hint of bitterness . This may improve over the next few years and last well a further 5 or so . — 8 months ago

Yummy, a great German! Being German I am not a big fan of German wines but this one was great. — 5 years ago

This wine singlehanded you revives my lost hope for German Pinot. The best I have ever tasted!

A little bit more refined than the ‘15, or maybe just a little bit more crushable in its youth? — 8 years ago

My parents come from the ABC generation so convincing them to try a german chardonnay wasn't easy...this wont be a problem in the future! Getting your hands on this wine is becoming increasingly difficult and you can see why. A beautiful wine with depth and balance, precision and expertise that will only improve with time. Truly a classic under german wines — 2 years ago

Richer, denser, with more weight yet still very fresh, very fine and with loads of character.
Cherries & cranberries galore with touch of undergrowth, mushrooms and herby spice.
On the palate this is not that light, with slightly chewy yet very juicy tannins, brilliant acidity, a tea like mouthfeel. Complex, layered, elegant. This is quite exceptional! — 5 years ago

Soft spice, very round and juicy. Pretty apple, pear and melon nuances. Hints of vanilla, butter and chalk.
Just a pinch too much alcohol in the finish.
Ah well.
Cheers anyway.

Mineral-forward aromas... limestone... and a little citrus pith. Bright acidity, crisp yellow apple and lemon peel, lingering minerals. — 5 years ago

Rivaner, SB, weissburgunder, Riesling and muscateller- it's wacky! Like an everlasting gobstopper, flavor changes with each sip. Speaks to my inner wine geek. — 9 years ago
