Oh my lord. Gorgeous. High acid on the front, such roundness, nearly dry on the finish. Yet not dry. A truly lovely Riesling.

Lovely with a ton of floral character, stone, mineral, a slight peach/stone fruit, great with shrimp!

It’s so damn tropical, but you think about the region. Not tropical at all. This is magic. This is psychedelia. I wish I could always feel how I feel when I drink this wine.

A feral Riesling animal. Textured orchard fruits and sour cream. Acid burbling through apples and pears - favors fruits and ferment in exchange for minerals and petrol. Don’t procrastinate as this will turn quickly in a day or two.

Beautiful, fresh, high acid, a joy to drink while making dinner.

Pale straw, high minerality even on the nose, pear, light peach, saline on the nose. Absolute peach, high minerality, high acid, off dry on the palate. Just a cool as fuck wine. Feels like typicity. Love this wine.

High acid (tasted really sour). Not great for pairings.

The alcohol is not perfectly balanced, although it's only 12%. Good acidity, but the 2014 was leaner. It might need more time, or maybe it's not a perfect bottle. Not bad, but somewhat underwhelming.
