51-year-old Mosel BA from the red-slate "Spice Garden" — and it held. Honeyed botrytis, dried apricot, beeswax, a flicker of petrol, and still that racy Mosel acidity cutting through the sweetness. The geology (volcanic red slate and ironstone) gives an exotic spiciness that younger BAs from flatter sites can't match. — 4 days ago

1979 - An esoteric experience. Still fresh, rich in texture and complexity, very very drinkable... :-) Great expression of Mosel Riesling. — 11 years ago

Great Xmas day breakfast wine! Smashed this baby with Bircher Muesli & Eggs Benedict. Love German Riesling when it gets a bit of age on it & the flavours layer up! — 13 years ago

Unfortunately, don't have the opportunity to drink this one, but seeing the bottle was worth 9.6. — 12 years ago
