Nose is chlorophyll, mineral and sweet green. So evocative. Sea air. So layered. Some smoke. So elegant. White flowers. So pretty. Palate is so crystalline. Unreal purity. Elegant and finesse driven. Faint peach fruit and incredible acidity and depth. It glides on the palate. Really juicy. Long. Just another wonderful 21. — 5 months ago
What a wine. One of my favorite red wines in the world. Crazy nose of pungent violets, deep cherry fruit and insane spice. The violets are so so intense. Wow. 9.7 nose. Sick. So so good. Palate is so velvety and sweet but needs air but my goodness this will go into Mach 5 in an hour. So fresh, so pure and so balanced. Amazing class and length. Genius. With air this gets downright seductive with a silky texture and so much finesse. — 5 months ago

Hell yea! Just that perfect Riesling balance of sugars that have relaxed in the bottle, with a dry clear structure, and a hint of petrol / apricot funk. And just right with some spicy Sichuan 🌶 — 5 months ago
Reasonably light garnet , wide watery garnet rim . Quite light nose , cranberry , red currant , herbal touches , touch of spice , rosewater . On the palate quite sweet light red fruits , with light rounded ripe tannin . Quite fresh acidity , and ok finish . This is now resolved drink now and over the next couple of years — 6 months ago
I opened this wine casually after receiving it from my former line manager as a Christmas present. I should maybe have made some research about it. It's not yet another Mosel riesling, it's a delicious, complex, soulful wine, with a tiny bit of age on it.
It bears a straw color with a golden hue, which is very different and much darker from recent kabinet I had in recent vintages. The nose shows first some petroly notes, that are quite strong and taking the stage by storm. After some air, tangerine, lemon and yuzu notes come in, it's very exciting. Some flowery notes pop out too. Wow!
The palate shows some acid drive, but it's not a laser beam acid drive, it's just one element of the whole palate experience. There is some nice width, some stewed tangerine notes, almost a sweet, buttery mouthfeel that tells me there could be some slight oxydation going on, before an elegant, tangerine finish. No lemon peel to speak of and no bitterness whatsoever. It's extremely easy to drink and very elegant. A whole new riesling experience 👍🏻 — 4 months ago
Gorgeous nose of sweet greens, minerals, sweet melon, white flowers and some white cherries. Such a clear and classic nose from this corner of Franken. Palate is crunchy with huge acidity and delicious, palate slathering minerals. Juicy with wonderful purity and freshness. Terrific mouthfeel and awesome mineral, crunchy texture and that licking a rock feeling that elite German riesling has. Great grip and concentration and a delicate tannic structure. A triumph. — 5 months ago
