Just 1002 bottles has been produced. Very limited and the taste was so good. — 7 years ago
God, den andre som har ratet denne er på 9,8. Jeg er vel ikke helt der. Gled deg Jonny, du kjøpte noen sånne? Føles egentlig litt strengt å gi den 8,9. — 8 years ago
Mary Beth traded a glass of Chardonnay for this & even I was able to enjoy a glass myself before she and Gi-Gi finished it off. — 8 years ago

I heard something today on IDTT that exemplifies tasting this wine - never explicitly was the term "great" terrior used, but I think it's safe to say that the discussion was about great terrior. A "great" vineyard isn't necessarily better than others in terms of quality... Or even necessarily need to represent the covering GI... but it is "great" because of clarity. It produces a unique expression CONSTANTLY, irrespective of vintage or producer. In short, it speaks precisely of a place... Cliché but truly. And that's Pettenthal! Time and time again I've seen this. With KP, Kai, Gunderloch, Kuhling-Gillot. Pettenthal is great and this wine sealed it for me.
Brought this to blind KP. It was an obvious choice since KP's tiny super plot was once part of FK Schmitt's holdings. Despite the differences with KP's insane 17' auction wine (vintage, style, vineyard size, philosophy), this wine was clearly Pettenthal. That cool and smoky elements that I've learned to associate with the vineyard, fine minerally backbone. Damn! This has to be one of the most tightly focused aged Auslese's I've had in a while. What a pristine bottle - all thanks to Roland's exquisite sourcing skills. Stone fruits, petrol, honey, spice, umami elements. Finish was admittedly one-dimensional. Could be longer. Still, what a lovely #rieslingstudy — 7 years ago
Incredible - botn! Very lively, but hides the alcohol well. So good! Best beer of the night; incredibly expressive, wonderful depth. Made the Gi bcbs seem closed in comparison. — 8 years ago

Excellent flavor. A little dry finish but overall a great wine. Enjoyed on Christmas at GI-Gi's! — 9 years ago
This is not the same as the wine mentioned leads with Cabernet Sauvignon 40% Merlot 30% Cabernet Franc 29% and 1% Petit Verdot - with that out of the way - nice restrained currants and blackberry fruit oak background somewhat young ( Hawkes Bay GI ) tannins medium to medium plus like to have this in a 3-4 year ax — 7 years ago
After a little bit of a hiatus with my wife suffering from GI issues, I have been a little bit off my delectable game. This wine sort of re-centered me and brought me back into the game! First one in a while that I have wanted to post! What an incredibly rich and robust Cabernet. Oakville fruit, and you can taste the oak, blackberry, cinnamon, still extremely tannic. I cannot imagine rating a 2013 or 14 version of this wine, because I just don't think it's possible at this point. This one still needs an hour or two to open up, but is a 94 even after immediately pouring — 8 years ago
