93 points - Golden yellow. Attractive mandarin peel nose. Pineapple. Fully mature, featherlight for a kabinett: the sweetness mellowed and melded into the texture of the wine.

91 points - Complex aromas of aged characters and caramel, dried herbs. Off dry, good concentration and lees, buttery character. Very smart.

88 points - Lemon lanolin. Fully mature. A bit of toast. Cork issue? Or too old?

93 points - Bright medium gold. Subtle, aged citrus compote characters on the nose. Luscious, aged texture, gently grippy. Pleasant, still drinking well but likely at a plateau and not improving. Hmm fallen over after a couple of hours.

93 points - Medium yellow, shows some age. Mealy honey nose. Beeswax. Yellow stonefruit. Full bodied creamy palate texture with a fresh finish. This bottle is past peak. Drink up. Not as mirabelly as the last bottle a year ago. Cork variation? Some faint metallic notes in the mix that weren’t there before. Still a very good wine.

91 points - Yellow Golden colour, nicely matured Riesling. A bit shy on the nose. Bitter caramel runs underneath the palate. Creamy texture, mealy notes with barely sugar. There is still a hint of tropical fruit in the mix. Might have been better a few years ago.

90 points - Mid deep gold. Needs some time to open up. Spicy, dried herb/floral and mellow, pineapple compote aged complexities in the bouquet. Initially a bit muted on both nose and palate. Moderate sweetness with nice gentle grip on the finish to balance. A nuanced style.

90 points - Mid deep gold. Honeyed, wet stone aromas, dried herb, developed. Luscious, textural, needs time to relax. Honeyed on the palate with some phenolic grip now more evident. Fruit receded. Some suggestion of dried herb and florals, but ultimately this is diminishing. Slightly short and chalky.

85 points - Mid gold. Nose is classical riesling, florals but tinges with age, some honeyed compote. Palate lacks unfortunately, itâ??s tired, dried out in the finish and a bit clipped. I wonder if itâ??s cork affected.

94 points - Bright yellow. Pungent mirabelle nose. Palate a bit short: either aged a bit too long or cork issue? Still good but probably drink up.
