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. — 7 years ago

Drank 5/17/13 with veal and spatzle, not as smooth as we would have guessed, still good. — 13 years ago
I liked the first bottle i opened 5 months ago better, so I agree that this will now likely benefit from some age. Still enjoyable and distinctive, however. — 6 years ago

2012v. Petrol and wax on the nose. On the palette, there's a wash of sweet yellow apple and tangy lemon lime. Slight petrol on the finish but it's a clean ending. Slightly sweet, decent acidity, and a nice body in the mouth makes for a versatile and easy drinking wine. — 9 years ago

Det är en riktigt bra flaska vin. Söt och god till det mesta. Första försöket förstördes av flädersaft. — 6 years ago
