Good gruner - no joke.
“Handwerk” = nice work. If you like tall bottles from cold places with high acid and beautiful ripe fruit... go find some.

2013 vintage past it’s prime or just plain flawed. Not sure what to make of this even within the world of natural wines and orange wines, and I’m not new to the game. I’ll chalk it up to over the hill on this bottle and move on. — 8 years ago

2012 vintage - kept well and still drinking well for a “natural” wine. Super funky / stinky. Lamb or grilled / charred vegetables would pair well — 6 years ago

Solid...reminded me of my home team Pinot Blanc (Lieb Cellars) while I was on the road. I’ll drink a bottle of this anytime — 8 years ago
