Tasting from 16.10.2013

Bright golden yellow, silver reflections. Nuances of honey heightened with fine botrytis savouriness, dried apricot, delicate dried plum, fine nougat touch, underlaid with yellow tropical fruit notes, a multi-faceted bouquet. Elegant, juicy peach fruit, very well integrated sweetness, finesse-rich acidity, long lasting, very balanced style, corresponding to a Beerenauslese, ripe apricot fruit in the aftertaste, almost perfect Riesling sweet wine with great future reserves. (AB, Biodyvin).
