This is a Viticole club bottling. Unlike any Gruner I’ve tasted before. It’s creamy! With notes if apricot, peach, pear and a hint of coriander. Nice acidity. Slurpable! — 6 years ago

Very good! The nose opens up with fresh exotic fruit manguo un particular. On palate the wine has a very good acidity, it’s well balance, with a long finish on exotics fruits — 8 years ago

Probably the best Riesling Auslese I had so far, outgunning even the notorious JJ Prüm, in my opinion. Only leaving points open for possible surprises in the future. This stuff is amazingly delicious. — 9 years ago

2002-A light straw yellow with hints of green, this Mosel Riesling offers notes of petrol, Meyer lemon, mango and white flowers. On the palate, the level of sweetness is well balanced with the acid that lift the aromas for a long saline finish. — 10 years ago

Hot damn I love aged Riesling. This one might have been a year or so past it’s tip top best but my friend who knows nada about wine tasted it and said “whoa this is a whole meal” which is to say it is wildly apple, honeysuckle, arugula and...feta cheese? So much feta we even got some out of the fridge to taste test. Loved this. Wish I had more. Love Riesling. Get in. — 8 years ago

Terrific bottle of Gruner here. You don't usually expect this much personality and pizzazz without buying a fancy smaragd label - I was actually taken aback. It's deceptively soft at first but all that means is that it's not leaning on ripping acidity to stay fresh. There is still plenty of cut to the texture but the fruit is plush and fleshy, so it actually pulls off a nice balance between something gentle and contemplative and something you can guzzle for its thirst-quenching crystal-clean freshness. The flavor itself is very characteristic no-doubter Gruner, edgy but exotic flavors like green banana with a peppery kick. — 9 years ago

Really liked this. Mineral crunchy and limey. Bit opulent but finishes all awash in acids and minerals. — 8 years ago

9.7

A creamy, sweet nose with notes of juicy peach, citrus, nectarine and honey. Juicy, lush and sweet on the palate. Flavors of sweet, juicy peach and fresh, crisp citrus lead to nuanced notes of spice, honey and cream rounded out by still zest, crisp acidity, even after 10 years in the bottle. The finish is long and sweet but balanced by long, bright acidity creating a wonderfully balanced dessert wine. — 8 years ago
