Young, green to straw yellow color with hints of CO2 bubbles in the glass. Seriously complex nose which reveals mature, deep, layered riesling. I'm almost 100% certain it was matured in large oak barrels. There are predominant aromas of honey, riped appricot, candied fruit, flint and smoke. This one is a bomb! It tastes exceptionally elegant, harmonious and balanced with great juicy finish. Speechless! Awesome Pfalz riesling! 93/100

Tasted at the winery on 5 June 2014. Another great showing! Identical quality to the 2012 Wachenheimer Altenburg Riesling Trocken PC, though with its own distinct terroir elements. The two wines were even priced the same. This wine featured more chalk than iron ore elements. Excellent!

Great balance. Light straw, zippy and fragrant. A point now. Slightly preferred to the PC Altenburg and Gerumpel from the same producer.

Some honey melon. Nice, laid-back acidity. Dry, but not overly so.
