Ripe and generous, yet showing great clarity and precision where stone fruits meet warm slate and spice elements. Big for Alzinger but nowhere near over ripeness. Drinking beautifully.

Difficult vintage but after 10y it shines!
Amazing aromatics with apricots and a touch of honey and apples. The wow happens on the palate - liquid gold. Great purity & precision with juicy acidity flowing around the fruit and the spice. This goes on forever. Wow.
