16/20 (89/100) Элегантный аромат с нотами абрикоса, цедры лимона и сырого камня. Умеренная тельность, довольно высокая кислотность. Вкус сдержанный. Ждёшь чего-то более насыщенного от категории Smaragd, но, в целом, неплохо.

what a riesling statement!

super elegant, not baroque, crisp and focused - and if blind presented you know in the second it's an "achleiten": the wine stinks a bit of harbour breeze, saline air, broken mussels and seaweed, fuel gas. ...and stone fruit.
fantastic!

all that with highly drinkable 12.5% alcohol

Deep bread nose, dark minerals, lemon pulp, some texture here. Serious and super dry.
