This 13 vintage is fire. Acid and finish for over a minute. Lychee, petrol, flowers, and so much more. Highly recommended — 9 years ago

Cherry nose with sour cherry notes on the palate pretty tart . This wine hums when it's matched with food. Oregano really ignites a perfume of raspberry and candied flower. — 10 years ago

These are Ott Gruners are exotically rich and textured, structured with actual tannins and whopping acidity, and possess incredible flavors ranging from tropical fruits to citrus, along with intense minority. Really unique among Gruners, these are the most fascinating white wines I've had in some time. This '11 is more structured, while the 12 is richer and even more textured. — 11 years ago

Quite a step up in complexity & depth compared to the Kabi. More exotic flavours like pineapple, mango and lychee mixed with a lot of ripe peach. But you recognize the undertones of minerality immediately.
On the palate this wine has so much tension, extract & what we call in German "Spiel". Amazing balance between sweetness & acidity. Long, long finish. Astonishing life ahead. — 9 years ago

Like Riesling and Gruner had a baby - opulent quince with a peppery finish. — 10 years ago

2011, St. Urbans-Hof, Ockfener Bockstein Kabinett Riesling. Little petrol on the nose. Pear, a little citrus and some residual sugar. A little young and will improve with time. — 11 years ago

Was on the search for a Reisling after reading "A hedonist in the cellar", which I highly recommend! Wine was crisp, big flavors of lemon and pear, with a great combination of sweet and sourness! Simply yummy! — 9 years ago

In a great place. Overwhelmingly savory, salty, white peppery and dense as fuck. Vines planted in '56 and farmed bio-d. Mind blowing gruner. — 12 years ago

2012. Vines from 1896, made in the style of 1896. Bit of extra body from the skin time, beautiful acidity & clarity. Damn good. — 12 years ago
