Slightly disappointed with he effervesce of this wine when first opened . After 30 minutes of settling that went away and opens a nice mineral slate and stone fruit nose that was also displayed on the palate. Honey ,dates , apricot, slate and mineral dominated this bone dry and brightly acidic monster of a Riesling. — 9 years ago
Burgundian aromatics. Pepper. Iron. Forest floor pine needles. Silky and seamless. Finish pops like fireworks. This has a long life ahead and i will enjoy every drop of it. — 10 years ago

Enjoyable. Sweeter than I intended. But good with spicy foods. — 10 years ago
An absolutely epic wine from an epic vintage:
Creme brûlée, coffee/toffee/caramel notes, deep amber color with a green rim (always the sign of great Riesling). Concentration of layered botrytis flavors, candied citrus peel, baked apple, clove, spicy, cinnamon, tropical fruits, dates, figs...you name it this wine had it in spades...stunning complexity! Yet not in the least cloying, very clean and perfectly balanced. From very old vines and from an estate that was in its utter heyday at the time this wine was produced--MIRACULOUS!!!

Thank you to the friend who gave me this 2008 Freiherr Langwerth von Simmern Rauenthaler Baiken Riesling Spätlese Trocken, Rheingau, Germany! We don't have too many German Rieslings in Napa. This wine bursts with golden delicious apples on the front of the palate, tropical fruits mid-palate, then finishes with blazing acidity. Or as he would say, "This Is f*cking good Riesling!" I'm pairing this with red chile chicken enchiladas. — 10 years ago
In the Nose, walnut, marzipan, quince, honey, chestnut and raisin. In addition on the Palate, caramell, clove and star anise. Still has some good acidity (RS: 183g, Acid: 7.2g) — 10 years ago
