Tom Casagrande

Nose still has some sponti/yeasty notes overlaid on very fresh citrus/peach/apple fruit punch. Nice slatey scents too. In the mouth it’s super-fresh and juicy, with great acidity and great fruit but with a nice, slightly bitter counterbalancing element. Although it’s a Feinherb, the residual sugar barely even registers.

Lovely nose, Sponti, pear, armpit, mineral, slate, Apple skins, and palate is just so fresh and complete. Amazing sugar acid balance. Tense yet playful. Juicy and slabs nice minerals on the finish. Finesse driven.

It's like drinking a cloud . . . That's charged with impending lightning. there's an almost Saar-like delicacy and finesse with the core of middle Mosel strength/power.

Excellent, on the dry side with fantastic acidity and minerality. Pungent aromas of lime, slate, fresh white flowers. Great freshness and length.

Damn! Immensely drinkable (almost too easy). Filigreed feinherb style- beautiful peach and lemon. Mosel to a T.

Nice pith. Candied fruit at first. On the kabinetty side.
