  Apricot and light petroleum note on the nose. Palate is syrupy, mango and apricot prevail, acidity is a tad low, lacks a bit of complexity but overall a good experience.

  Mintier than the Badstube auslese 2010 from Prum next to it. Sense some canned asparagus and there is good length. Easy on the petroleum. A favourite.

  芒果、杏、桃、蜂蜜和汽油的香气，轻盈中略显圆润，酸度并不是非常高，但和糖分、酒精处于平衡之中，所以并不会让人感到过分甜腻或沉闷。收尾很长。

  Overall a great wine, aging with grace though lacks acid. Sweat, almost syrupy, with notes of honey, passion fruit, ripe mango and candied fruit (orange/pineapple) and a light petrol note. My critique is it lacks acid to cut through the fatty sweetness. Best paired with spicy food.
  
  Great wine, drinking well now but could take maybe another 5-8 years to bring out more petrol.
