Not the most exciting riesling you could come across from this famed producer, but there is no flaw in this wine either. On its own I'm sure its delightful, but I tasted this wine in a flight of some true stunners and sadly, this guy was left behind because the acidity wasn't as present and the body was a tiny bit richer, as was the fruit.

Passable, but with none of the classic characteristics I seek in German Riesling.

Superb balance and definition. Great tension between its sweetness and acidity. Velvet palate of Flowers and peach, with a hint of botrytis. Magnificent.
