Tasting Notes
Little primary aromas on the nose, characterised by wood ageing, roasted aromas and smoke, some apple, citrus fruit and apricot. Juicy and savoury on the palate, clearly defined, slender contours, straightforward and taut in character, citrus fruit again, consistent.
More about the tastingRipe fruit, very ripe apricot, medlar, Cape gooseberry, dense on the palate, concise extract, a striking but not green Rheingau acidity, bundled in the finish, still very closed, very good certain ageing potential, a local wine with a lot of steam - but not in the alcohol, in the extract.
