Pale yellow. Aromas of lemon, pear, peach, orange blossom and a hint of petrol. Light, dry mouthfeel. Apple acids and cidery bitterness. Palate of cider, grapefruit, apricot, acacia blossom, peach stone and flint. A fruit-driven and perfumed wine with pure yellow stone fruit, flowery aromas and a finish with perfectly pitched acidity. Drink within 4-6 years. Tasted alongside Gustave Lorentz, Riesling, Altenberg, Vielles vignes, 2017 and the matched wine is generous and complex and has more petrol notes, but not as pure acidity.

Lots of things going on. Tropical fruit, bread, green apple, lemon. Quite full almost dense mouthfeel. High acidity (but medium for a Riesling), not piercing.
Good but not what i’d thought. More fruitpunch than icy lemon.

Didn't stand up to the 2020 vintage tasted next to it. More apparent sweetness here; surely to balance the higher acidity level. More muted aromas and not the same texture.

Quite. ice vintage of this wine. Very bright with lots of citrus, some minerals, a slightly smokey note, turmeric, and peach. High acidity and good finish. Very young and best with food at this stage, but will sure improve and gain complexity with age. 92+

Tastes sweet?! But it's a trocken!
Tropical fruits, there's some citrusy notes, almost passionfruit
Good acidity
Not much petrol which i expected. Perfect for me.
Intense on the mouth and nose. This is a very good bottle. Reflective of its pedigree.
Needs to be drunk cold
