Sunday, January 5, 2020 - WSET Diploma - Class Two - Grape Experience; 1/4/2020-1/5/2020; 1/4/2020-1/5/2020 (San Francisco Holiday Inn Golden Gateway): Tasted Open

A: Medium gold [instr. says pale)
N: Pronounced intensity. Honey, ginger, saffron, tapioca (botrytis), Mango, pineapple, papaya (tropical fruit) and a hint of vanilla...odd!, marmalade (tertiary)
P: Sweet, medium (+) acid, low alcohol, pronounced intensity, full body [medium says instructor] and long finish
Acid and fruit concentration with all that lovely ripe primary fruit makes this suitable for ageing. The acid balances the R. The length , intensity and purity of fruit make this an outstanding wine.
Pfalz is a warm German region and therefore one expects riper more tropical fruit here than in Mosel.
