Reached its apogee and shined at the Christmas dinner table. Creamy, Smokey, delicate and long. A pure treat. Best one yet, one left. — 3 days ago

9.1

Impressive to see an entry level Riesling develop into a wine with serious depth and intensity. Zingy citrus nose with clear notes of petroleum and (over)ripe papaya. On the palate again ripe citrus fruits, lime, lemon and maybe some grapefruit. Some bitters. Petrol is there again and accompanies the wine to a mineral streak aligned with the focused Riesling acidity. Finish is pretty long. — 16 days ago

9.1

This wine shows bright, crunchy freshness with notes of alpine cough drops, fresh green herbs, and a touch of petrol. The palate is taut and mineral-driven, layered with lime zest and green apple, grapefruits. A saline, slatey undercurrent adds depth and tension, leading to a clean, mouthwatering finish. A precise and expressive Mosel Riesling with real energy and character. — 2 months ago

Fresh as a daisy still with juicy red to black fruits. Some garique, sticky licorice, leather and masking it’s 15% quite well. Medium complex and some years left to develop. — a month ago

Popcorny cali chardonnay with just enough freshness to counter the 14%. The expressive fruits are mellowing down and some tertiary nuances appear. Lovely wine with a Dutch twist. — 2 months ago

9.0

Burgundy like nose with forest floor, modest oak, small red fruits, intriguing. A bit disappointing palate on opening with small red fruits and some dust. Improved after an hour with more depth and some drying tannines but not convincing yet.. a bit unbalanced. — 6 days ago
