Mark,

Ceretto is definitely modern. The Zonchera is their "low-end' (if the
term has any meaning with Barolo prices!) wine, designed for earlier
consumption.

I didn't recall your exact note, but your notes were what prompted me
to buy this wine and the '02 Loibnergarten Smaragd (next up!).

How was the Mauritiushof ?


It was very nice, in a lighter Riseling sort of way. We had it with
Thai curries, and it was a bit overmatched, but still good. For a
Smaragd, it was surprisingly light on the palate, but perhaps I just
need to recalibrate for Austrian Rieslings.
