Lovely stuff. Great accompaniment to escargot and duck. Reasonably straightforward drinking but delicious. — a month ago

Orange blossom, quince, some pithiness and good concentration. Hints of secondary development with muted kerosene notes. There’s a lot going on. Love how riesling expresses itself in Alsace; it’s a beautiful contrast to our searing Clare Valley gems. Cork was in good condition. Another couple of these stashed away, so looking forward to they shape up. — 3 months ago

Surprisingly delicate and fresh, with a lovely clean finish. Not excessively sweet, instead being refreshing with its fruits and florals, a nice punctuation mark on the evening. — 3 months ago

This was pretty delicious. No detailed notes as too engrossed in an indulgent dinner to go with it. Approachable now with good intensity of flavour and fine tannins. — a month ago

Delectable, you might consider consolidating the three or more listings of this wine with slightly different labels. Very annoying having to pick between them. Been a while since I tasted this and was enjoyed over family dinner, not paying detailed attention to it. But definitely enjoyable and has softened since the last encounter, tannins integrated and medium bodied luscious fruit the driving force. Rather lovely. — 3 months ago

An intriguing wine adventure this evening. Bought a few years ago as an auction bargain. Cork still mostly intact but slightly moist sides and crust on top, beneath capsule. Dark golden hue and surprising viscosity, reminiscent of a botrytis wine in appearance. But absolutely no sweetness here. Aromas of pear, freshly cut green vegetable, beeswax. Quite savoury palate, perhaps candied lemon and honey but sweetness completely absent. Drying finish. Almost certainly not the best example of this vintage, but still in surprisingly decent shape and a very interesting experience. — 3 months ago

Past its best and the sweeter American oak notes distract a little, but still a decent drink. — 3 months ago

Plush, lush and smooth. Sweetness from the American oak. Not hugely memorably but a very easy drink to enjoy, no sharp edges. — 3 months ago

9.3

It would be more useful if Delectable labelled these with what the numbers actually mean: No. 3 is the Clare Valley riesling. And what a joy it is, full of juicy lemon, vital and bright, but with the bristling acid softened from what it was at release. Lemon barley cordial without the sweetness. Still very much on the youthful side with only a hint on the nose of secondary development to come. Incredibly moreish. — 3 months ago

9.4

Smooth, full bodied but elegant, mix of red and black fruit, baking spices, a little cola aroma, tannins fine and playing a background role. — 3 months ago
