Really enjoying this wine. More bitter / tart fruit with nerve and precision than overt ripeness. Think quince, orange rind, and Buddha's hand instead of ripe apple or sweet pear. The wine's 13.5%abv from Wachau acts as the gatekeeper to the overarching bandwidth of mouthfeel and total structure. Sleek and calculated.
