we had it after Keller's Morstein 2009. For me a hint fresher and more precise than the first one. Still a few years ahead. No petrol. 94 -

November 19, 2022 - Glass: Zalto Bordeaux
Popped and poured, drunk over three days. Clear, deep glowing yellow color. Clean, pronounced and developing nose. Smoky, tobacco leaves, Amalfi citrus, ripe fruit. Very deep and complex. Simply beautiful!
On the palate dry with some residual sugar and extract sweetness. Medium+, ripe acidity. Warm, ripe fruit, Amalfi citrus, tobacco leaves, herbs and orange zests. Very salty-mineral. Amazing tension, depth and pressure. Great structure and balance. Very long, complex finish. This bottle is on its peak, but absolutely no hurry. One of the best Wittmann Morstein I had so far. 95+1 person found this helpful Comment -

March 20, 2021 - Medium yellow. Lemon confit bouquet. Round and dense. Like sucking lemon curd across a mouth of gravel. Medium bodied, long honey inflected final.
Very impressive. Balanced and complete.1 person found this helpful Comment
