Quite simply the best bottle of Alsatian Riesling that I have ever had ... At 23 years of age, this Riesling showed outstanding freshness, definition and intensity. Minerality, floral aromas, honey, candied fruit, lime, bright acidity on the palate and dry... The only negative aspect of this great experience are regrets of moving away from the varietal designation of this wine and a clear shift towards a "bigger" riper style. I'm not at all convinced that these changes are for the better. Memorable bottle going into the pantheon.
