Reductive, yeasty nose opens to a generous mouthful of ripe peach, pineapple, gooseberry, white flowers, minerals. Supple texture, fine acid structure, and a long, just dry enough intricate finish. Gorgeous now and has 10+ years more potential. — 3 years ago

The nose reveals, lighter more subtle petrol characteristics, ripe golden apple, ripe fleshy pineapple , apricots, marmalade, lemon syrup, grapefruit with pith, honey, beeswax, a little lime candy, white spice, dry stones, yellow lilies and spring flowers.

The body is thick, rich, waxy and a touch syrupy. Dry, pineapple & apricots, golden apple, peach, lemon syrup, lime candy, some green apple, grapefruit with pith, marmalade, orange rind, fruit blossoms, honey, beeswax, soft delicate minerality, very light petrol notes, slate, white spice with yellow lilies and spring flowers. Acidity is round and magnificent. The 09 is in a good place with plenty of life ahead. The rich, lush, well balanced finish is persistent for minutes.

Excellent with spicy Asian food.

Deep gold. Big nose of red apple and white peach. Mouth-filling body and medium plus acidity. Rich palate of red apples, peach, hint of slate. Very rich for a Kabinett; felt more typical of the Mosel Spätlesen I get. Still very good value. Sausage/Schnitzel dishes and fresh fruit salad are excellent matches. — 7 years ago

Was worried when I saw the cork but the wine turned out to be quite tasty. Color still super light. Good weight in the mouth. Finish could be a tad longer. Overall solid wine! — 3 years ago

Crazy body and structure for 43 yr old white wine...but this is 76 and God it feels like it wants to live forever. The type of floral off-sweetness that only the best producers can achieve...and almost oily envelope that still glistens on the rim! Simply magnificent! — 5 years ago
