I've even been debating whether it's worth waiting to see because I have such limited space in my wine refrigerator. They just seem so loose and unfocused. Hardly a charge you expect for Grunhaus.

I've been very impressed with the 2000 and 2001 vintages (CFE and CFE VT), and have high hope for the future, especially for the 2001 (not to mention the 2001 375th anniversary cuvee).

Fresh, bracing and very drinkable - this is exactly what it should be, a textbook example of Rheingau Riesling without a ton of complexity owing to its less than truly noble site. On a cool fall day with a pork loin on the grill (food pairing note!!) it is a great match.

The 2001 and 2003 are still going strong.

Do they develop enough to justify the storage space?
