Loads of petrol, liquid mineral, and apple skin fruit on the nose. Still quite fresh (fresher than a bottle I had several years ago, as I recall). Rich, with tons of dry extract, in the mouth. Deeply mineral, dense, slightly bitter-edged apple fruit. Almost overwhelming. But in a good way. Great wine.

Powerful petrol and tropical fruit on the nose topped with orange peel and japanese pear. Delicious layered palate of childishly playful acidity, citrus notes, deep minerality and fantastic mouthwatering finish. Wine of the flight with great potential to age. #airfrance #lapremiere

From clay-limestone on the southern side of the Altenberg. This is all about rich petrol and citrus notes. Good acidity. Apple skin and minerality.

Lime, faint lemon, citrus. Long lasting finish. Fairly mild wine. Good with Yokozuna sushi at home.
