Stupid great. So delicious. The palate is like Mosel sweet ice. Incredible green apple, melon and lime and huge acid and depth but so clean and nimble. A whisper that yells. Finishes savory and slatey. Nose is melon, apple, slate and some lime zest. But the palate is the showstopper. Just in an awesome place. — a month ago
Nose: white flowers. Hint of green apple perfume. Very classic.
Palate : green apples. Mountain stream.

Last had this July 2023 and it was noticeably improved: soaring aromas of beautiful delineated peach & apricot, powdered sugar, lemon meringue and lime cream. Just epic nose, smooth & silky on palate, still vibrant acidic backbone and sumptuous orchard fruit, orange blossom & all soaked in honey. Wowza - our guests were astonished… — 3 months ago
@Lyle Fass 6 Weeks? I maybe made it 6 minutes. Mosel Fine Wines said this was picked at 110 Oeschle with 40-50% botrytized grapes. I was prepared for a lush dessert ,and had a blue cheese plate ready to pair with it. Wasn’t necessary. The wine is barely off-dry. Generous, though not at all opulent. The botrytis is barely noticeable on the palate, just adding a slight raisin character to complement its honeyed pineapple and saffron notes. It has an improbable lightness and high, refreshing acidity, which makes the mouth water but doesn’t stand out. While I suspect it will gain weight with bottle age, this is a lean, chiseled athlete with not an ounce of excess fat. The finish lasts forever and brings lovely spice and light mineral character. The balance in this wine is impeccable; reaching a Jungian ideal. I have never had an Auslese like this. Bravo!

This is electric. The 2021 vintage is fire and this balances acidity and slight sweetness perfectly. — 6 days ago
