Nose is deep and rich. Lightly unctuous in an elegant way. Some mustiness as this opens.

Palate is rich apple fruit. Hint of lemon pith. Mineral. Some petrol. Well done. — 4 years ago

Dude. We we’re eating Indian when we opened this bottle & it was the most perfect thing with the cuisine on the table. It’s mineral, it’s acid driven, it’s flavorful, there’s the right amount of RS with a refreshing zippiness that just kept me coming back for more. — 7 years ago

Rich, unctuous and concentrated dry Riesling, but - kudos to the 2008 acidity - by no means flabby. Great tension, slatey minerals and deep orange fruit notes (tangerine, peach and guave). A very delicate hint of savoury crustaceans really adds to the complexity! Beautiful wine. — 9 years ago

Light golden colour. Mature Riesling nose. Firne, slate, hyacinth, orange blossom, citrus zest and oriental spices leap out of the glass.
On the palate this is unusually (for the Mosel and for the vintage as well) rich, concentrated, almost fatty in mouthfeel. Yet it remains in balance remarkably well. Very floral and tropical in its aromatics, this is not your typical dry Mosel wine. Actually, it's not legally trocken, more a feinherb kind of wine. Busch's wines only resemble those of Heymann Löwenstein in style; I see some parallels in their concentration, balance, richness, spicyness, yes uniqueness. What a gorgeous wine....!

This year this wine had 2 versions. One barrel fermented to a Trocken wine and was labelled "Falkenlay GG". The second barrel stopped earlier so a Feinherb remained. This was labelled "Falkenlay (Erste Lage)". — 9 years ago

What a nose and insane power on the palate. Big petrol on the nose, the best kind. On the palate mineral and summer stone fruit. Intensely flavorful and delicious. — 4 years ago

🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥✨✨✨💫💫💫 Wow. Another tasting group wine. Another producer I hadn’t experienced before. Laser focused 8 years later. Someone mentioned RS and noble rot. Fresh, acid, racy. — 7 years ago

Intens gold-yellow colored and a developed riesling nose. Creamy appeltones turning into grapefrute bitters quickly. Pleasant mineral acidity. Fine distinguished Moselwine — 7 years ago

Beautifully balanced and light on its feet. Has great mid-palate fruit, soft oakiness and obvious slatey minerality. A very serious PN! — 8 years ago

17/20 (92/100) Сладкий аромат с тонами яблочного и абрикосового варенья, лимонного мармелада и мёда. Умеренная кислотность, едва справляется с балансом. Неплохо. — 7 years ago
