  A wonderful GG from Wittmann. Pale yellow color. A complex nose of grapefruit, ananas and stoney minerality. Energetic! On the palate it‘s well balanced and ever changing. Some smoke and peach join the party. Long aftertaste. Love it! Will be even better in 5 years.

  WOW this is really beautiful right now in its early stages. Bouquet of stone fruits, peaches, some melon and endless strings of mineral infused depth. On the palate it keeps an amazing balance between power and floating lightness with incredible length. Compared to Keller’s Abtserde maybe more approachable right now but nevertheless with the same aging potential.

  Tasted next to the 2008. Not very expressive on the nose at this stage, hints of yellow stone fruit, crushed stones, herbs. Very dense and layered. On the palate very complete and harmonious, rather tight and restrained but the fruit is lovely, the high acidity is well balanced and the mineral spine adds structure and depth. Very precise, very very long. Impressive. 95-96+

  Diskret, svakt tropisk lukt. Nokså rund i anslaget, men spisser seg til i munnen. Ettersmak av grapefrukt og noe som minner om de hermetiserte pærene vi fant i en eldre utgave av denne vinen. Mangler litt på fruktfylde og intensitet mot de beste årgangene. Det er en god vin, men ingen kosevin - prøver med mat i morgen.
