Perfectly balanced, with a fresh and almost minty aspect to it. Beautiful stuff.

Gold color. Very aromatic nose, ripe lemon, pear, pineapple, yellow apple and rubber. Not overly sweet, but the high acidity keeps it balanced. Long finish. Great stuff and feels still very young.

Drinking well right now. A little bit of kerosene on the nose after a few minutes of air.

Typical Riesling nose. Fantastic peach and tropical fruit notes. Fairly fresh and well balanced for a Spätlese, after 18 years perfect to drink. Lovely long finish.
