En godt lagret GG fra Leitz til rekene i dag! Dyp gul farge. Lukter gul steinfrukt som apritkos og fersken, honning, eple og litt petroleum. En utrolig konsentrasjon og høy syre! Mye av det samme i smak som i lukt, men også litt salt mineralitet. Meget lang og behagelig ettersmak.

Lovely pale gold colour. N: medium (+) intensity. Aromas of ripe peach, apricot, maybe some tinned, exotic fruit character. Some botrytis? There an honeyed, richness to it suggesting so, but balanced by freshness. Some biscuity notes to. P: Lovely texture, so supple and smooth with the acidity backing it up. Added flavours of lanolin coming through, joining those noted on the nose. Long finish. Hint of bitterness on the finish but kept in check.
This is a rich, ripe, rounded dry Riesling with some apparent botrytis influence which suggests sweet notes. It's at a very nice level of maturity at the moment so whilst I'm sure it will hold, I would suggest drinking now. Not one for Riesling heads chasing pure minerality, and it falls short of a religious experience, but a delicious complex wine.

Good color and legs. Secondary aromas of lanolin and sheepswool. This has good balance but seems lacking a little depth. Very good, not stellar. 5-13-15-8: 91/100.

Tasted with Leitz. Tropical, and mineral aromas, with some petroleum. Intense, full bodied, concentrated and generous. Plenty of fruit. Became more refined and elegant after a while in the glass.
