Lovely austerity and high acid, carries that profile well, coiled and compact with deep weight and impact.

What a champion this wine is—big alcohol, big acid and a whoosh of butter that cuts through white stone fruit aka those ones that have a floral component.

Right, ripe tropical fruity pineapple and mango. Fresh tones but a sweet touch as well. Caramel and salmiak/licquorish. Was well with spicy Indonesian food.

Stage 6 of #tourdefrance what a great Grand Cru Riesling. Hits all the right notes, green apple, petrol, some wax in the finish. Long full mouth and finish. Great expression of Alsace.

Full body overripe pineapple. Pointy acids to match the caramel sweet cream tones.

Medium lemon yellow with clean aromas of petrol, stone, wine peach, green apple and lime. On the palate, dry and complex flavors of quince, lime and green apple with high acidity and a long finish. Very good quality.

Naturally showing its age but still a very nice wine in good balance.
Will probably hold up for a few more years if you have any left.

This was a good bottle and the wine was better the day after.

Not very harmonious, lacking focus, off dry, acidity is moderate.
