  On its downside already, very open, sweet nose with honey, buttery toast, rather tropically fruited - in the mouth now rather fat, sweet, peaches and pears, honey and grass, not unbalanced but not quite to my liking and it already seems to lose its youthful appeal...
  Drink up

  Golden yellow colour - intense honey and lime blossom nose, little oak. Full, creamy, honey again, lychees galore, on the finish a little salty with potted pears, a subtle hint of stone licking is noticeable as well. A little too fat for my taste, but that's only criticizing the style, the wine itself is great - excellent white wine.
  
  Goldgelbe Farbe, schliert etwas im Glas - äußerst intensive Akazienhonignase mit Lindenblüten und Holler, etwas frisches Biskuit. Am Gaumen dann sehr voll, cremig mit einer ordentlichen Portion Honig über die süßen Litschis, schließlich leicht gesalzenes, hochreifes Birnenkompott im mittellangen Finish. Für meinen Geschmack etwas zu dick, aber mit viel Kraft und Stringenz, Liebhaber des übergewichtigen Weißweines werden 1-2 Punkte mehr geben.
