Does anyone have any thoughts on Riesling quality from the '08, '09 & '10 vintages (specifically the Wachau)? It’s tough to find much information & I’d appreciate any insight.
Thanks in advance

All good, in different ways. 2008 and particularly 2010 are (to me) leaner, more austere, even “classic” vintages. 2009 is a fleshier, rounder vintage, though with good balance. I think you would be rewarded with good wines from any of these vintages.
Alan pretty much has it right, but I have only had a little experience with 10 so far, but seem to be closer to 08 than 06, 07, or 09.
