Gotta love a 17yr oak aged Riesling, they need a few hours decanted to blossom, but all the natural yeasty florals are such a delight.

Hard to believe this wine is 21 years old. Alive and kicking, with typical Riesling petrol notes on the nose, and an interesting salty/sugary balance on the finish. Wow.

Aug 5th, 2016Most amazing. Every sip an experience. Classic to avant garde Riesling. Dry to off dry to petrol to grey slate. Fruit and minerals merge. An experience! Sipped slowly over many hours.
