Was worried this might be way over the hill - but no. Still drinking great - opens up and comes into balance with air after starting out a bit awkward. On the palate this is fresh and lively, acidity is bright and rounded.

Seems fully mature now, a very elegant style of wine, light and filigree, very flowing, dancing across the palate almost, clearly the product of very sensitive winemaking; lacks a bit of length perhaps, but can you blame a butterfly for being evanescent?

Identical to my previous note. Well made, attractive, stylish, fully mature.

Not much to add to my tasting note of December 2013; if anything it has become slightly more mature and rounded, with a honeyed note. Drink up.

Elegant, energetic, delicious ripe fruit, precise and fresh, floral, wonderful Halenberg minerality, medium-weight, good length. Classic Halenberg, classic Schönleber. Drink now - 2016.
