Excellent every day Riesling. It combines fruit, acid and minerality in an ideal matter. Very good value for the money. — 4 years ago
Utrolig god vin, annerledes og ikke søt! Veldig fruktig og lang avslutning:)) føler dette er en «ordentlig» «voksen»-vin typ — 5 years ago
Det är en riktigt bra flaska vin. Söt och god till det mesta. Första försöket förstördes av flädersaft. — 5 years ago

Dry, crisp, and heavenly. Lightly tart green apple with hay and dried apricots. — 4 years ago
Outstanding - tastes like NSG/Gevrey blend. Quite dark. Dark fruit with a touch of cherry and a raspberry aftertaste. Cloves. Plenty of minerals. Very well managed tannins. This would be 80-100$ if it would be a Burgh. Bought only 2 bottles to sample the wine but will buy this in the future. Very Burgundian. If you want to pay less but still have the Burgh experience this is it. Lyle an of this left? — 5 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
Great Riesling, tight and crispy! — 6 years ago
2011 vintage. Light golden hue. Mineral, chalky, peaches and stone fruits to the fore. Quite ripe. On the palate, dry (probably more than 4g of residual but acidity masks the sugar), medium plus body,high alcohol, high extract, long and persistent finish and huge refreshing, tangy acidity, especially on the finish. Peaches and apricots, lemon zest from the acidity, crisp and long textured wine with real weight. Love it. More similar to an Alsatian Riesling than a Mosel/Rheingau Riesling, and although weighty, no noticeable TDN notes or lime juice zest of a High Eden or Clare Valley Aussie Riesling. — 10 years ago

Pop and pour. This is flat-out gorgeous. The wood influence in this bottle is much less visible, by comparison to my last btl. On the nose: peach, basil, vanilla cream, ripe meyer lemon, so compelling. On the palate: fantastic acidity, amazing density, lovely spiced peach, citrus and a touch of white pepper on the dense finish. Absolutely stunning. — 4 years ago
