Lacks a little bit secondary flavors of interest even after 5 years in the bottle. Might be in the Riesling dumm 🤪 phase. Citrusy. At 65$ just too expensive for what it is. — 4 days ago

One of the best if not the best of the 22’s so far. Super layered. Minerality galore. Rich ripe pear, hint burned hazelnuts, white flowers, sour mandarin, jasmine some herbaceousness - green tea? There is so much stuffing here give it 5-10 years. — 10 days ago

See previous notes. Less showy today. From one of the top vineyards in the Pfalz Germany. Quite herbaceous, very racy, coiled. Apricots, not overly acidic, minerals galore. Touch bitter. Sour mandarine. Needs 10 years or so. I would leave this alone for now!!! — 14 days ago

I think we need to get some life and excitement to this app! Here we go. No idea when and where I bought this. Cork perfect. No seep at all. 13%. Tons of tannins - I mean it. Has another 5 years or so but not more at this stage as the fruit will go down. And after that this wine will go into ??!!! Seems highly extracted and dense. Crushed marble, more dark than red fruit. A little to extracted for me - still rustic. A big wine. In fact huge. Blackberry, leather, hint violet, cedar, violets, lime, 🍋‍🟩 . Dry Red Port wine, plums. a benchmark wine i thought initially. My wife hated it. I am not convinced in the end the wife might be right!!!!!!! Happy wife happy life. — 17 days ago

14.5%. 🍎 apples, ripe, a big wine. Really well done yet over the top for me. Apple pie. A fantastic wine for asian food! I had a hard time with this one! On one side I was smitten and on the other side I was wondering what could this wine be with this quality grape material picked earlier and therefore less alcohol and more elegance? — 5 days ago

Last tried in 2021. Still a ton of tannins left. A ton really. They might have overdone it. Better showing than the Corton-Pouget tonight!!!! Stinky nose. I am not convinced. — 14 days ago
