Huge expressive stunning nose. Deep fleshy minerals. Lime zest. Minerals. Pink grapefruit. Other types of citrus. Nuanced, layered and complex. Juicy, dense and very concentrated with amazing sap and freshness. Super citric and jaw droppingly pure. Citrus flesh really pronounced on the nose. Wow this is so structured. More than Probstey and Schlossberg and it starts out closed but also has the icing on cake texture of elite Riesling. But the finish is clipped for now. A lovely airy saline limestone now emanates from the glass. Hint of barely ripe tropical fruit. Needs massive air, especially on the palate. The finesse is starting to come through as is some ripe sweet citrus fruit. Inner mouth aromas are also developing. I’ll be back.
