A wine full of pear, apple, elderflower and peach flavors in a real round, intense mouthfeel. A nice dry taste with the presence of slate and creaminess — 3 years ago

Just past my favourite zone, acid has taken a backseat, this is like a really ripe pineapple and mango salad. Soft like cordial. 👌 — 9 years ago
Apple, citrus, tarragon on the nose. Firm, wonderful acidity balances small residual sugar and long mineral finish. #Mosel #Riesling — 10 years ago
Green apples, slight honey and petrol. There is a sweetness to the acidity. It’s delicate. There is a slight wet creek rock meets little white wild flowers taste to it. I feel like I should be by a gently flowing river in spring that you would find in a Disney movie… maybe sitting in a canoe. I would pair this with a Pudelpointer, a water fowl retrieving dog from Germany. Both wine and dog are friendly, calm, and disciplined. — 2 years ago
The condition of the bottle was remarkable - the wine was fresh and crisp, like the day it was bottled. Bright with a tinge of green, no signs of TDN at all. Only the mellowed acidity gave any indication of age. Insane!
Despite all that, the wine itself was rather disappointing. Not really complex or deep, and finish was quite short. I guess it did come from a tough vintage. However, it had the classic Grunhaus lightness - drinking more like a kabi than spat. In conclusion, an easy fun drink that fell below expectations. — 6 years ago
