Smoky lime eclipses smoked apple and baked pear, with a nod to buttered rum, palm leaf, and lemon pudding and of course the whiff of petrol. Apple jolly rancher memories and lemon intimations of spiced tea with strong lemon, cinnamon sticks and clove that morph into violently formed, but arabesque igneous rock and dried field mushroom. As bright and shiny as Christmastide!

My bottle had a damaged cork and was starting to go, but the wine was still enjoyable. This Auslese is very sweet, but still not overbearing. This is the 3-star version.

At 8% alc. this gem is singing right now! Expressive, medium weight with a tangy dry finish. Fantastic!
