A perfectly balanced Riesling. Nicely acidic. — 5 years ago
The Basic QbA Riesling from a good grower should always be a very good wine that also ages well. Case in point here. This 13-year old has another decade of aging potential. I believe the vineyard village here is Wehlen. The fruit is fresh and would be convincing as a feinherb, and the balanced structure is appropriately firm. — 6 years ago
Fairly sweet but in the category of dry wine. Full bodied and luscious. Just need to pair it correctly. — 6 years ago
Golden meadow sunshine bubbling honeyed botrytis harmonized with ripe fruit acidity. — 7 months ago
Und hier kommt die Wucht, 2018, geöffnet 2025, was für ein Jahrgang. Intensives Aroma nach Williams Birne, ausgewogene, fast dezente Säure, kräftig am Gaumen und dennoch leicht im Abgang, einfach ein toller Wein. — 9 months ago

Nice with the bright Vietnamese shrimp/pig ear/carrot/daikon salad, and ground beef rolls wrapped in piper lolot leaves! — 5 years ago
80% Grenache, 20% Syrah
Nice wine brand to explore. In the voice of Pauly Shore “astrological... buddy”.
Needs 3 hr decant (journey along the way was very interesting, with lots of plot twists, and interesting views).
Nice fruit level, red and dark berry, black plum, persimmon (?mushiness on the tip of tounge?), rocks, cement, bitter, medium tannin.
Im down, eager to explore more of the portfolio. Very nice CDR. — 6 years ago

Good weight, intensity, and complexity, drinking really well now and paired perfectly with the fare from FLx table. — 4 years ago
Big fresh long notes, very dry, would love a salted fish, plenty of lemon — 6 years ago
I’m getting a real taste for these delicious aged rieslings. This is the second bottle of this vintage I’ve had, and man - it was rocking. It’s in such a perfect place right now. Ripe acidity balanced with the sweetness of honey, caramel apple, brûlée’d peach, kerosene and lilac flower. I’m making a mental note to buy more for the cellar. Despite the wait, these are too good to rob your future self of their pleasures. Yum. — 6 years ago
