  Apologies for he lack of tasting note, but this was drinking superbly and was a hit even with those that don't really enjoy whites. From Magnum

  Deep canary yellow color. Complex, layered bouquet redolent of developed nuances; aromas of old dry wood, powerful mirabelle plum fruit, developed spicy notes, some smoke, nuances of ripe and sweet yellow stone fruits, a little wizened apricot and a whiff of dried flowers. The wine is full in body with quite modest acidity and ample, sweet and developed fruit flavors. Notes of ripe citrus fruits, apricot, yellow plum marmalade, complex floral nuances, some stony minerality, aromatic herbal notes and a touch of lanolin waxiness. With its sense of maturity, silky texture and rather low acidity, the wine feels very smooth and restful in the mouth. The finish is very powerful, opulent and extremely lengthy with layered, intermingling nuances of yellow apple, peach, some stony minerality, a little honeyed florals and a touch of almonds.
  
  This Vorberg would easily be one of the most impressive vintages of the 00's, were it not for its rather low acidity, which makes the wine seem rather heavy and a bit flabby. As the wine is showing a remarkable cavalcade of more mature characteristics I can guess that the wine seems to both age and, eventually, deteriorate faster than the more acid-driven vintages. Though this 2004 has still some life left ahead, I suggest it to be drunk sooner rather than later.

  Giallo paglierino riflessi color oro, naso profuma di fiori, camomilla, biancospino, pesca bianca, mela renetta, con un sottofondo di mineralità fumè, bocca ricca, generosa, con attacco di carbonica che dopo l'ossigenazione sparisce, sapido, frutto giallo maturo che richiama l'albicocca con chiusura minerale con ritorni affumicati scuri.

  Lemon-lime acidity, clean, almost rocky, strongly mineral effervescence to the mouthfeel, like a razor. Super dry, citrus and pith, just awesome!
