Yeah, acid... In such a good way. Floral, herbal, chalky limestone and a whiff of nectarine mingling with some leesy notes. This hits me nicely. Great acidity, yet enough texture and weight to bring balance and keep it from being too linear. Awesome.

Quite perplexing. Despite 2012 being a racy high acid vintage, and this wine being from an excellent Saar vineyard, this wine comes off as extremely flat. fairly shy on the nose, with no off-flavours....but flat and lifeless. I'm wondering if this might be a result of trying to de-acidify that turned out badly. Unfortunate!

AP 09 14. Absolutely gorgeous. Wet stone and floral on the nose, with mouth coating juicy fruit with good density that turns quite zesty in the finish with hints of peach and citrus blending with herbal spice. This stuff is amazingly pure, crystalline, and mouth-wateringly delicious. May I have another please!
