Confectionery aromas but also a richness. Gorgeous, complex aromas. Spice, cotton candy, umami. Palate is rich, ripe but also has that bee sting quality. Unreal purity and balance. Super clean. What an opulent mid palate. Stunningly delicious. — 4 months ago

Such a gorgeous wine. Nose is wintergreen, lentils, yellow curry, ripe apples and more. So mineral. Juicy with just super crisp acids and so long. Refined like you wouldn’t believe. Terrific inner mouth aromas and such chunky minerality. So juicy. — 9 months ago

So good. Freakish in the right way. Nose of herbs, keuper, minerals and more. A bit closed but it’s also a bit cold. Palate is just killing it. Juicy and clean with awesome texture and density. Sapid and almost tannic on the finish. So much going on. Insane inner mouth aromas. Really elegant. Unreal length. Just a rock star. Will be back once nose opens up. Unreal complexity and finish. Gorgeous. Nose is wide open now after around 10 minutes. Stunning. Lanolin, herbs and lemon lime. Expansive and so much depth. So good. — 2 months ago

This NEEDS a and hour decant. Do NOT a drink sooner.

Nose: yellow flowers. White flowers. Lovely. Really a great nose.

Palate: lemon Zest. Hints of tropical fruit. Mineral. A bit confused. Let’s see where this goes.

As this opens its like elite unoaked condrieu. Silky minerals. Just a hint of tropicality it not so much as to make it annoying. Elegant. Wow.

A great contrast to weltner which is denser and more impactful. This is way on the elegant side of things. Wispy.

Very distinctive

Fantastic. Brilliant palate. Superb integration and confident. So elegant. Mineral on an elemental level and such luscious mouthfeel with such a nice touch of lush opulence. Masterful. Aromas are a bit mute as it was in the back of the fridge. Lol. — 5 months ago

Young but quite lovely and enjoyable at this stage. Rock/mineral edifice with just enough fruit seeping through to generate pleasure. Weltner always delivers. Certainly upside to this in a few years. — 3 years ago

Wow. What a wonderful wine. Nose is wild mint, herbal. sage, thyme and so many other things. Just stunning. So complex, so complete and concentrated. Sappy and pure. Fresh and invigorating. Long, minty and herbal. Superb structure. So long. Epic length. The vividness of the herbals on the finish is insane. @Delectable Wine this is the Schuerebe and is in the system but it’s not showing up for some reason. — 4 years ago

Chilled a little over cellar temperature, notes forthcoming...

Nose has insane qualities, not sure I've ever experienced a Riesling like this, beeswax, grapefruit pith, fresh cut white grapefruit, freshly cut spring hay and faint wet limestone.

Palate is restrained, yet screaming acidity, pulverized SweeTARTS, honey poured over citrus pith, limestone dust and faint white flowers.

Holy crap this is good!
