"Gorgeous. Ripe, with apricot, peach and mineral aromas and flavors matched to an opulent, fleshy frame. Offers the character of the vintage while retaining its focus and balance. Lovely finish. Well done. Drink now through 2010. 820 cases made."
Best 2005-2010

"Lemon, plum, persimmon and brown spices on the nose. Plenty juicy and full, with brothy mineral expression on the palate. A concentration of brown spices, fruit pits, and ore-like mineral essences combines for a finish teeming with flavor. The old vines that inform this wine seldom if ever display distress, says Nigl, whereas, for instance, I found a 2003 riesling from younger vines in the Hochacker slightly drying and hot in the finish alongside this bottle. Potential 2 stars."
