  Mesmerizingly beautiful - this is Mosel and dessert wine at its best.
  Endless content and intensity, lead by apricot, but also pears, pineapple, mango and a hint of ginger. Wonderful balance and a never ending aftertaste.
  
  What a treat. Wow.

  Tasted at the winery; fell in love with it; purchased several bottles; opened one; fell in love with it again.
  
  This is nothing short of stunning - a rather concentrated Mosel style - best: beautiful aged Riesling, honey, beeswax, camomille, a slight bitter component and a lot of orange peel.
  
  Intensive and elegant; endless aftertaste. It might be past its peak but who cares when it's so beaautiful.
  
  A treat. Highly recommented for the fans of aged Riesling.
