Needs a 45 minute decant. Don’t pop and pour.

Nose: complex. Dense. Yellow fruits. A bit brooding. Almost dark minerals.

Palate: delicious. Such dense yellow fruits. Dense minerals. Dense and insane internal aromatics. So night and juicy but in a serious way. Mohammed Ali (float like a butterfly….)

Long long long long long.

Vintage 2022 | vibrant with lots of minerality — 2 years ago

Nose: mountain stream, yellow flowers, fine minerals.

Palate is golden apples. Minerals. Big acids.

Needs at least an hour decant. On open is correct but not delicious. As it opens it gets more interest and deliciousness. Nose is more intense and round. More sensual. Palate is much better. More depth and intensity. More peach.

My new favorite Austrian wine! Had the Josephine a while back but we did not become great friends. Anatasius, however, is playful, fruitful, and slightly bubbly. Made a new friend. — 5 months ago

Lovely stuff and so mineral. Love the mineral force of these wines. Nose is almost Chablisean. Seashells and ocean breeze. Lime zest and come other light citrus. Really great lift. These wines are so elite. Palate is so ultra focused with terrific purity, energy and an almost tannic finish. Palate is mostly mineral with some citrus but the great Felsenberg always needs hours to unravel. But it is all there as the length is brilliant. Great concentration and inner mouth “smarties” aromas which is classic Felsenberg. — a year ago

Wow. Nose is mad confectionary with lime zest, sweet lime, apricot (only a hint) and insane pulverized rock dust. Just so complex, subtle and nuanced. Genius. Dizzying. Just wow. Palate has ripping acidity and just the most intense sapidity. Stunning concentration and unreal length. So pure. Needs air but just incredible. Crazy minerality on the nose is echoed on the palate. Okay the confectionary nose is beyond now. Just insane. So elegant and precise. Again the purity of Icelandic glacial melt. — 4 months ago

Reductive and a bit closed with a herby, a touch bitte note. Juicy, racy acidity with underripe lemon. Yet there’s some darker character - not the flowery light type. Quite some weight & power. Yet not so much charm.
