Christmas Eve with the family, had this with cheeses after an 07 Keller. Last bottle of this opened Christmas Eve 2021...Chilled, decanted, drank over 90 minutes. Bright bronze whiskey color, color continues to evolve per prior notes. Nose showing orchard fruits, honey, hint of botrytis. Palate of candied apple, honey, apricots, pineapple. Sweet and rich texture, great depth of flavors through the mid palate and finish with creme brulee, and apricot. Full body, long finish. We had with cheeses in …

Christmas eve and day...last bottle was 7 years ago. Purchased close to release, in my cellar since. Chilled, PnP, drank over 2 days, on its own and with some Christmas Apple pie. Color has evolved to a bright orange/copper, like a new penny...:) notable as last bottle was a honey/gold color, this was a gorgeous color showing a next level of evolution since last tasting. Nose showing apricot, baked orchard fruits, hint of botrytis. Palate of baked apple, honey, apricots, …

At Agricola with Val, Sharon. Thought I would mix it up a bit, haven't had this wine in a few years and thought I would see how it aged. Color has gone to a honey-gold. Sweet baked apples, poached pears, tropical fruits, lemon/citrus, honey. Hint of botrytis...Unctuous and rich texture. Long/complex finish - close to 60 seconds. This was PnP, was drinking well right out of the bottle, slightly better after an hour This is on the sweet side of …

A dessert wine by any other name...Sweet apple, pear, lemon rind, and a solid backbone of acidity to provide structure. Rich and unctuous. Lovely

Very complex, beautiful wine with classic German Riesling features. Many years ahead of it

a: deep lemon, seriously dense n: a little botrytis p: rich and thick, all sorts of flavor, by far the most layered and complex of the tasting.

Very well done. Great flavors/aromas and a finish that lasts nearly a minute. 93-94 pts.

This wine has botrytis. Complex nose of honey, tropical dried fruit and litchi, with a hint of lemongrass. Nice balanced wine with the necessary acidity. Long! (No rating given, unfortunately)
