Gorgeous nose. Fresh mowed grass. Peach, apricot, minerals and some vulcanized rubber. Very petty. Amazing how sugar changes the whole equation. Nose gains depth and breadth as it airs out. Palate is lights out with unreal fresh layers of fruit, peach, apricot and white peach. Nose gets more evocative and blends limestone and vineyard peach. Such a summer wine. And likely great with food. Dense, light, nimble and just the right amount of barely there sweetness. Outstanding. — 4 years ago
Confectionary nose that is teeming with energy. Awesome minerals, sugar snap peas and airiness. So clean and intense. Awesome. Has that 19 lift. Rich, yet also so energetic and crisp. Has terrific fruit intensity like apricot and kumquat but finished mineral and shows its limestone footprint. So good. Lovely tension between elegant richness and intense minerality and crunch. — 4 years ago

Shockingly good. Not as rich and acidic as expected, but beautifully balanced. — 7 years ago
2015. Crisp and clean, with just enough complexity to keep you paying attention and looking for more. Fruit flavors and mouth-watering acids travel together through a finish that is solid and long. Perfect match with roasted chicken, spicy green beans, and some fries. Not a pretentious sip in the entire bottle. Good stuff. 12.5% abv. Bliss Wine Imports. — 9 years ago

A perfume. All the better wines have a perfume in 2022. Persimmon. grapefruit, cardamom, clove, spice. Herbals. Stunning. Ripe but juuuuust ripe. That is a winner. 9.7 nose. Wow. acidity. Just an exciting vintage and what depth. Good dry extract. Long and so elegant. Edgy wine. Gorgeous and so pure. Such energy. So long. Stunning. Light and yet so dense. Really nothing like it. — 3 years ago

En magnum with Johannes Leitz on a beautiful LA night. Old ass vines, soaring high alcohol at 14.5%, still massive amounts of fruit and striking acid to bring things in order. One of the most interesting Rieslings I've ever tried. Bold and radiant on the palate, ridiculously long finish. Love this! 🦄 🦄 🦄 — 8 years ago
Flavourful dry Riesling. Interesting and young tasting, but still typical. Enjoyed it a lot. — 10 years ago
Unfiltriert, trüb, orange wine style. — 11 years ago
Bright, concentrated hazy lemon yellow with flecks of marigold.
Very fragrant, with aromas of elderflower, dried apricot, unripe yellow peach, lychee, honeysuckle, red apple skin, sage, preserved lemon, candied ginger, white grapefruit, and almond skin, which carry through to the mouthwatering palate.
A complex intersection of floral, stone fruit, saline, and savory notes, this is a show-stopping wine and an incredible value at $30 retail. It’s dry and lightly tannic, with tangy acidity and a long and evolving finish.
I had this on its own and it was delightful. I’m certain it would be a fantastic pairing with a whole bunch of different dishes and cuisines, but I kind of feel like it deserves to be savored alone as the star of the show. — 3 years ago
Another stunning nose. Apple. Green apple, barely ripe pear and stunning vivid minerals. Hint of smoke. Good breadth to the nose. Palate is ripe and rich but has such cut and minerality. Silky yet structured and just the mildest, complimentary hint of oak. Very very juicy. Complex, jagged minerality and some caressing barely there apple fruit. Long, even some lovey finesse and wonderful purity. Nose develops some woodsy, tree bark aromas after some minimal air. Also some lovely spice. Like an incense spice. Terrific depth. This is special. — 4 years ago
Had 2018 from Chambers on 10/2/20. Good band aid, blackberry, banana. Taste and texture more cherry juice. No tannin, but that’s the style—clean, bright,fresh and yet full. Laura gets leather and cedar. — 5 years ago

Elegant. Off dry. Classic. — 7 years ago
Quite rich & powerful with ripe pomelo and green grapefruit, lemon tart and some matchstick reduction. Fullbodied with the wood nicely integrated, good lemony acidity and nice length with a flinty finish. Needs some time to aerate so large burgundy glasses are a must. — 7 years ago
Light and dry. Classic German Frankenwein. Great with fish. Franken wines are highly underrated. Try this one. — 11 years ago
