Lovely baked apple nose with layers of apricot, honey, dragonfruit, and a touch of hay. Good length and a lot sweeter than expected (surely of BA weight). Excellent if a tiny touch cloying (not quite enough acidity to back up all the sugar). — 8 years ago

1997 Staatsweingut
Rauenthaler #Baiken remains one of the very best sites in all of Europe and '97 continues to impress with its longevity and marvelous balance--this #auction #Kabinett drinks perfectly now but could age further and continue to please😀! — 11 years ago

Whow, it's not Hyundai :) but a great off-dry botrytis treat.

Try it, and I bet you'll not regret. Highly aromatic, honey & ripe tangerine and candied fruits (pear) with honeysuckle. In mouth juicy acidic, balanced with sweet tropical fruit again tangerine. Lingering ginger finish, first time I'm drinking Solaris grape - great wine from Poland.

Solaris is a variety of grape used for white wine. It was created in 1975 at the grape breeding institute in Freiburg, Germany by Norbert Becker. — 8 years ago

Phenomenal Auslese from this out-of-the-way Staatsweingut Trier vineyard. Pale green-gold sheen of a very young wine. Beautifully pungent yet delicately nuanced nose of raw unripe grape juice and pips, peach kernel, Chinese gooseberries, dragonfruit, and dandelions; stunning concentration of flavours on the palate with crushing layers of musky fruit and incredible knife-sharp acidity. This excellent example of the '83 vintage just goes to show how nowhere in the world even comes close to the M-S-R! — 9 years ago

#1934 was one of the three best vintages of that decade in #Germany, along with 1937 & 1938.
The #Staatsweingut #Rheingaus produced in this era were excellent; especially those from the steep, #slate soil sites of the majestic Rüdesheimer Berg.
This is a perfectly balanced wine when it comes to sweetness versus acidity and in no way a big, fat, syrupy overstated example of late-picked #Riesling, but rather restrained by comparison...a wine one can easily drink more than one glass of--GRANDIOS!!! #klostereberbach #tba — 10 years ago
