Very nice. Has that great tension you always hope to see in Riesling. Quite a ripe nose. Great body and acid. Just that hint of sweetness, more a suggestion than a presence. — 8 months ago

The nose on this wine is magnificent, so beautifully funky and barnyardy, in the best of ways. On the palate, a true German Spatburgunder, lighter in color and mouth feel than a Burgundian Pinot Noir. I’m sure this will only get better with time. — a year ago

Wonderful. Bitter, acid, sea air, so nice. More later. After a day open this is strutting with oodles of finesse and acid. Really long and refreshing. Outstanding. — 3 years ago

Stunning nose. Saffron, rich honey and spices. Tangerine honey. Super rich, yet focused. Smells very rich and exotic. Wow, stunning palate. Rich yet so fresh with so much energy. Amazing purity and saline on the finish. Wow. Decadent yet so linear and energetic. Loads is citrus and guava. Perfect ripeness. A stunning Auslese. — 5 years ago

Superb. A little floral on the nose. Immediate diesel which is strange but then controlled and bags of mineral — at 3 pavaru restorans Riga — 3 months ago

This has aged fine but not really gained much. Which is fine.

Lovely elegance. Ok. Maybe has some aged Riesling aspect.

Lovely to drink. Glad this got lost in the cellar. — a year ago

Needs a good 75 minUte decant. Very reluctant.

Nose: Smokey minerals. Lemon rind. Pith. Some sea breeze. Complete. Much richer and more dense as it opens.

Palate: hint of sweet lemon. Hidden density. Delicious. Elegant. Almost an herbal liquor taste after an hour. Denser an hour in.

Nose is a bit quiet. Some wet stones but surprisingly quiet. Maybe too cold? Palate is electric. Wow. Just a big zing of fresh mouthwatering minerals. Really long. Really closed. Unusual for it to be this closed but it’s all there. Needs to come together! Some sugar snap peas and florals with coaxing. Really long and mouthcoating. So pure and energetic. Wow. Really great. I’ll be back.

Really coming around now. Expansive and herbal aromas. Floral and so delicate. Ripe, juicy, long. Salty. Great structure. — 5 years ago

Medium light lemon yellow. Quite open and fruited at first with pear , quince , white flowers, then after a while slightly smoky , chalky , wet stones . On the palate this is strict and mineral , much more so than the nose indicates. Green apple , pear and quince , lemon peel. Quite refreshing , sharp acidity , good wet stone , grafite , green apple tinged finish. Young needs another few years and will last well another decade maybe longer . — 8 months ago

This is an schwarzen hergott auslese. Which is a sweet wine. The dry wine is a grosses gewachs.

Nose is so clean. Hint of botrytus. But it’s just an element.

Palate is so fresh. Green apple and a hint of tropicality. Mineral. Juicy. So good.
