Beautiful nose, full or ripe citrus, a touch of yellow stone fruit, candied orange peel, a bit exotic, but also a bit wild. There’s incredible cool freshness here, despite the ripeness. So enticing!
On the palate with racy, juicy, electric acidity but also ripe stone fruit, a slight touch of tannic grip, a brilliant stony minerality. This has great depth and brilliant purity but also some interesting edges and a smoky hint to it. Very complex. It’s not bone dry and the touch of wood aging adds a bit of creaminess.
I wouldn’t call it elegant but this is a great wine, full of character and energy.
Absolutely brilliant. And drinking so beautifully right now. — 20 days ago

On open. Cidery shit.

Wait 90 minutes.

Nose: fermented dried apricots. But pretty. Complex.

Palate: dried Riesling. Apricot sherry. Smells better than it tastes.

Unique. Not sure it’s good. — 7 months ago

Nose: white flowers. Dense. Lemon flower. Intense lemon rind. Really penetrating.

Palate Very lemony. Mineral. Very dense. Crunchy rocks. Grapefruit pith. Lingering. Penetrating.

Fresh & pure & slightly exotic on the nose with pineapple, candied lemon-peel & candied ginger. A touch of brioche, too, but not too much.
Nicely balanced on the palate with fine mousse & persistent bubbles. Typical Riesling with apples & steely lemons. A delicious Riesling Sekt! — 5 years ago

Pale lemon, with a nose primarily of white and yellow flowers, fairly delicate. Some wet slate mineral tones as well. Carried through on the palate with typical racy acidity. Lacks a bit in concentration, but overall a nice wine. There are better examples of dry Riesling for the price — 3 months ago

Developing. Tightly-coiled as expected, gave it a full day. Rubber, mint, wet stone, flaky minerals, nice poise & balance. Lovely work. — 3 years ago
