Previously tasted in April 2013 and in January 2010 (with pictures) the wine holds perfectly. Faithful to MIkulov sub-appellation it develops very nice benzin tones without showing oxidative elements of red apple so typical for aged Rieslings from other regions. I very much like it, but it is not for every palate:-)
Scoring was very close for your riesling tasting.
