From Austria’s benchmark producer of TBA, the 2019 Grande Cuvée No. 5, sitting at the sweet spot of richness and finesse, is quite majestic.
Deep aromas of apricot preserve, quince, honeycomb and saffron lead to a viscous yet racy palate. Intense sweetness is perfectly framed by vibrant acidity, finishing long and elegant.
Obviously drinking this too young. It will probably outlive me.
