Perfect with Thai heat. So energetic and opulent.

On night one, this was just pure pure fruit, but on night 2, more complexity is showing. The fruit is still remarkably intense and pure, but there is some beautiful slate on the nose to augment the ripe apple, peach, and fresh squeezed ripe lemon. The concentration of fruit in the mouth is hard to believe, but it’s not heavy. Rather, there is intense but submerged acidity and a prickle of minerality as well. An emerging hint of honeyed botrytis as well. This is going to last and improve for many many years.

@Lyle Fass tasting note says it all. An absolute stunning interpretation from a very down to earth, humbled, passionate wine producer who is still underrated imo.

Martin showed us this example to showcase how his wines age. This version has gaine so much extra complexity, open for another "step" in her life.

Saffron, mineral, peach, apricot, 30-40 botrytis. Swimming pool, round, balanced and great acid, mouthwatering, shows the class of Huhnerberg. (One of the best Spatlese he has ever made.) complex. @Delectable Wine not feinherb.

Nose: lovely. Dense peach and apricot.

Palate: silky. A hint of age as a backdrop. Peach nectar.

Nose is minerals and elegant green apple.

Palate is unreal. So elegant. Very low sweetness for a spatlese. A masterpiece

Had this a week in. It’s like willi Schaefer plus magic. That elegant tartness. And then just Filligree on top. Sweet elegance. My. Oh my. Long elegant green apple sugar finish. Oh my god.
