Vintage 2016 / I had a bad luck day. So I needed a comforting and unpretentious wine. This is. Lemon in smell and taste. Drink it young, the winegrower told me. And he is right... totally different from Spätlese in eg Mosel that needs time. #ahr #riesling paired it with a duck rilettes and schnitzel, red cabbage and baked potatoes. — 5 years ago

Vintage 2016 A winegrowers life is full of challenges. The grapes for this wine were harvested very late, it was meant to become an #eiswein #icewine but there came no frost 🤨 so it became an #auslese. It is a God drink with impeccable balance and a frivolous smell with peach and apricot! #ahr Great effort! — 6 years ago

Vintage 2015 / This is a very adequate Sunday morning bubble to pair with my scrambled eggs. True to type #riesling vibrancy. Lovely #sekt from the tiny #Ahr district. — 6 years ago

Vintage 2015 - this #spätburgunder from #ahr is the entrylevel at Mayschoss Altenahr coöperation, the oldest in the world. It has a great p/q and a seductive taste with hints of cherries. — 6 years ago

Candied red fruit, but in a serious way. Ripping acidity. A little more serious than your everyday #rosé #ahr #piratesofthecaribbean #captianhook #germany #spätburgunder #pinotnoir #ctbucklinwine — 7 years ago

Vintage 2017 / #Domina is a crossing of #spätburgunder and #blaueportugieser Most of these grapes grow in #Franken and #Ahr Germany. Very dark colour, at first it seems very quaffable and a bit frivolous. After a few minutes in the glass also tones of spices. / Partnered it with turkey liver and salad. At restaurant Vogelsburg in Volkach. — 6 years ago

Vintage 2016 #riesling #spätlese has good balance and an inviting freshness. I do like this cuvee more than the dry ones... #ahr — 6 years ago
