Razor sharp with a good acidity, apple, pear, citrus notes, stones. So enjoyable an easy to drink.

Fantastic Riesling that continues to drink with soul. Viscous, oily palate with splendid fruit and a lengthy finish. The label says of the vintage it is 09 & 10. I was unable to enter it that way even when I tried to do it as a new wine. In any case QPR at under $20 is fantastic.

Good structure and balance, good acidity, the fruit is tight with good cut. Starting to open up now, but still very young. Delicious.

Delicious, classic, great value. Typical Mosel nose, metallic, petrol, pineapple. Light spritz. Fuller weight, but sweetness that dances. Nice balance, decent length. Charming wine, I am quite happy with it for this price.

Classic, by no means a blockbuster, just straightfoward fresh riesling. Served with a ginger & parsnip chicken thigh dish and this worked well. Crystal clear in the glass, nice lingering finish. Very good QPR.

A little fuller and yellower fruited than the Urz Wurz from this vintage. But like that vineyard, light on its feet and refreshing, with just a hint of sweetness on the palate. Very nice.

Good clarity, very pure fruit. More reserved and quiet compared to the Meulenhof, more subtle. Delicious.

Great bottle of Riesling. Sweet and dry at the same time. Fresh and lively fruit with good cut. Lime, citrus and minerals. Outstanding.

Great Riesling here. Like a Chablis with just a little bit of sweetness. Citrus, lime and a stony minerality. Very fresh, superb acidity. Wonderful wine.

Nice - more complex with dirt/earth notes than the Reuscher-Haart wines tasted just before this. Overall, the wines from this producer were very lively in general.
