Johannisberger Hölle Kabinett Riesling 1985

Smoky petrol and wet mushroom, but an attractive honeyed quality keeps it fresh. Sweetness muted by age and blazing acidity — 10 years ago

Charta Riesling 2011

Vintage 2011 | Butter and honey in smell, vibrant taste. Quite high in alcohol, 13,5%, so for me it is a dinerwine. Paired with a Moroccan Tajine and couscous. — 4 years ago

Johannisberger Klaus Spätlese Riesling 1989

Good bit of petrol on the nose. Not quit as rich as I would have imagined. Plenty of fruit left. Drinking really lovely. Oh Lotus of Siam, how I cannot wait to be back! — 10 years ago

Weingut Korrell Johanneshof

Kreuznacher Paradies Trockenbeerenauslese Scheurebe 1994

Amber and orange in the glass. Nose is a tad shy or mute, but on the palate this very, very tasty. Lovely nuances of apple syrup and grilled peaches, unctuous and suave. And although it lacks the laserlike focus and penetration that Riesling TBAs often show, it has a wonderful freshness and is dangerously drinkable. Good stuff!

First wine in a while that I actually will drink and not taste. A deep golden aged color with a complex nose of savory/sweet. Caramel/foie gras, opulent. But a minerality emerges after 3-5 minutes. Beautiful fresh palate with some pretty notes of lime zest, light petrol and terrific finesse. Finishes light and citrusy with that lime showing on the finish. Will surely open up over the next few hours. Ready to go. UPDATE: on day 2 this improved vastly with lovely herbal aromas, and amazingly vivid and deep fruit and long complex finish. Wow. — 11 years ago

Old school Dr. Loosen still bearing his mother's name. After 28 years this simple Qualitatswein is stellar. — 13 years ago

In the old 710ML bottle. Nice affirmation of how a great DE, even basic, QbA can age.

Johannisberg 'Gold' Eiswein Riesling 2007

I don’t drink Eiswein often but this bottle was a treat that was muled back from the old country. Very floral on the nose; honey sweet on the attack but there was fantastic acidity to give it the lift necessary to keep the balance. — 7 years ago

December 02, 2003. Jesse said: "This wine was very good. When I first pulled the cork, I noticed it smelled more like a red wine, even though it had a familiar white smell. Taste is very distinct - a bit sharp, a bit sweet, a bit dry. Definitely a keeper." — 13 years ago

UPDATE: "This wine might have made me nauseous the day after. Maybe it was because it was so tasty, I drank too much too fast? :)"
