Years ago used to treat myself to this maker once a year, but then my local store stopped bringing them in & I lost contact. Such a marvelous blend of concentration & finesse: Asian pear, ginger crystal, and white peach. Not a light bodied Kabinett, just gorgeous. Not a stand out vintage if I remember right but they are all pretty damn good. — 5 years ago
Star bright pale straw. Honeysuckle and ripe peaches in the inviting nose. Bright acidity on the medium palate which confirms the nose with a slight hint of smoke. Finish is naturally lengthy given the richness. Classic Mosel Kabinett Riesling from a well established and highly regarded producer. Drink now through 2038 with almost any fare, pork being its natural match. — 3 months ago
Vintage 2015 | Now I understand the reputation of the Doctor. Textbook Riesling. | One anecdote I never forgot. Michael Broadbent wrote that his honeymoon was to the Mosel. And one of his deepest wishes was to make love to his wife in the Doctor. He wrote it dry and witty, as only British could. Very credible. | paired with salmon and shiitake. — 9 months ago

Crazy body and structure for 43 yr old white wine...but this is 76 and God it feels like it wants to live forever. The type of floral off-sweetness that only the best producers can achieve...and almost oily envelope that still glistens on the rim! Simply magnificent! — 8 years ago

Find me a better Gruner from the US of A!
Snuff of white pepper and perfumed tropical fruits. Pineapple incense, kiwi, yellow peaches. Wise old vines spewing concentrated licks.
Ovum nails it every time and even more so with my favorite of the idiosyncratic German grapes. — 6 years ago
Dinner 11/29/17 with turkey pie and other dishes. Had to open two bottles! Popular with the kids! Again perfect example of old Riesling aged at the vineyard cellar all these years. Must be that freshness from the living molds! — 7 years ago
Tight at first but much better on day 2. Very nice — 8 years ago

Very well-made reasoning from a great producer. It had all the classic elements of a great Riesling. Full mouthfeel, rich fruit, bracing acidity, and that petrol note on the nose. Just right for our salad, which had a a hummus dressing and watermelon with mixed baby greens. — a month ago
