Beautifully aromatic nose, probably starting the best phase right now.
Black cherry with some damson plum, a nice cedar wood note and a healthy dose of spices. Fresh, relatively cool, with stony minerality. Quite distinct and with very little iron or earthy aromas. Enticing.
On the palate this is the finest black sour cherry juice with some plum and a pinch of exotic spice (cloves, allspice, cinnamon, pepper). Beautiful juicy acidity, tannins polished & perfectly integrated. Fresh, sappy, so drinkable. The iron note appears in the very long, mineral finish.
This is singing right now! Delicious stuff!

Such a hard wine to get hold of this was
Not necessarily expensive, but it has such a long story behind that i can't even start
If you know Elisabetta Foradori this guy, mr Zierock, was her first husband and probably not a well mannered either
He was a strong biodynamic Steiner believer for my understanding and i truly thought this wine was going to be just off for some silly reason
On the other hand i find still a crisp fruit, there definitely been skin contact, such a chalky mineral that emphasises the ginger, the smokiness, the honeycomb and the very long after taste
Better when room temperature
I just cant believe that the legend of the Alps mountains has actually delivered so well
Just hope we could all think twice before putting anything else than fermented grape juice into winemaking
A very special bottle i had been holding on for such a long time..a real treasure..exciting emotion!! — 3 years ago

This was from the time when the French were saying California wines wouldn’t age. The label says it should have “a long life approaching 20 years”. It’s delicious at 40. Laurel Glen and Steiner vineyard grapes. — 5 years ago

Golden yellow. Exquisite. Paired with tomatoes and the yellow ripe fruit paired with the acidity of the tomatoes. — 3 years ago

Straw golden in colour yet this is no Spätlese.
Puristic, pure and stony mineral in the nose - slate, warm stones, a salty whiff and only far in the back - a piece of white peach, a slice of underripe pineapple, a few drops of honey.
Clean as a whistle and so fresh.
On the palate this is tightly wound and with great focus & depth, yet this has some substance & weight, too.
White peach, apricots, white pear and some rye toast. And lots of stones. And some white tea like tannins. And a very long, mineral, pure, beautiful finish, that leaves a hint of creaminess in the after taste.
What a beautiful, complete & complex wine!
