The bouquet was gorgeous with ripe pineapple, nectarine, spicy florals, and crushed stone. On the palate, I found silky textures contrasted by sweet lemon citrus, saline minerality and zesty acidity. It was incredibly fresh and energizing, perfectly balancing its sweetness, with a drink me personality.

Tasting at Weingut Vollenweider (Traben-Trarbach, Germany): Pears, ginger, and honey scents appear in the glass. Honey flavors start things out on the palate, with apples backed by full acidity coming in quickly. A touch of rich peach flavors and some minerality appear towards the finish. Here, the peach and apple flavors dance dramatically with each other while the acid rises up to dry fully. I love it when you get to experience drying acidity and richness at the same time without the two interfering with each other! The flavors last for so long that a small glass of this could easily last you 20-30 minutes. It's lovely! 93+

Good quality, but would need more time. Slightly unbalanced. Very good potential
