Old, tired nose. Honey and ripe citrus. Hessian too. Palate is *just* there, feels old and tired and unbalanced.

Honeyed apricot and slate, terrific fresh acidity, great but with years left.

On day 1: Tired nose, very fat in the mouth. I retire the bottle to the fridge only after one glass. Day 2: The nose is more muted, but the the taste has developed into an extremely sharp and pointed mineral mature riesling. This vineyard yields one of the more mineral-driven Austrian rieslings, and this bottle (on the second day) is no difference. day 1: 75-77points, day2: 88+ points

Deep golden color. Marginally better than the previous bottle, this one does not seem as tired. But it needs a lot of air to really shine, so could this be young nonetheless? I am still not convinced, although it drinks very good it still is slightly too developed for my taste (needs more freshness for it to be more age-worthy).

Gyllen farge. Bra utviklet, men tror den har noen år igjen. Blir bare bedre etter noen timer i åpen flaske. God fylde, syre og lang rik ettersmak
