Saar 2009 strikes again. Dancing elegance. A Weightless Boxer. Packs you by the throat and keeps its tight grip for minutes. Very little petrol at this point. Definitely a solo artist. This seems immortal. Use this to show what German Riesling GGs are about. Absolut wonderful.

I have been following this wine for some years and even though it's still a very good wine with an especially nice nose, I recall the first bottle as being the best. Maybe my taste has changed or else this wine is on a slight downslope. If I had more I would drink these sooner than later. 90 pts.

Glass: Zalto Universal Drunk over two days. Clear, medium lemon-golden color. Clean, medium intense, developing nose with some floral notes, ripe yellow stone fruit, pear, wet stone. Delicate and airy. On the palate more off-dry (I guess around 10-13gr residual sugar). Wine is not declared dry. 12% abv. Some caramel, wet stone, beautiful clear ripe fruit (pear, grapefruit). Very round, elegant and balanced. Beautiful, but lacks a bit of excitement. Medium+ finish. Good potential for another 5+ years. 90-91

Expressive nose of Citrus, minerals, some steely elements and flowers. Good mid palate and length. Nice showing.

Bra sødme, litt petro og sitrus. Lang og kompleks.
