Light-medium gold color. PNP, drank 1 glass on consecutive days. Nose is fresh cut lemon,a touch of lime, mineral and a little white flower. The palate follows through with good minerality, tart citrus, citrus zest, grapefruit zippy acidity and a medium finish. 90-91pts.
This was very nice indeed. Quite round and nicely textured, great minerality, nice fruit with citrus and tangerine along with some petrol. I would have liked a little more time with this one.
Light gold color. Drank 1 glass over 30 minutes. I really enjoyed this and it was in a good spot. Nicely balanced with good acids and not too sweet, creamy texture, tropical fruits, pineapple, apple, just a touch of fusil, and a long finish. Glad I've got a couple more. 93+ to94pts.
This was another good showing with everyone liking this tonight. A common thrread in the discussion referred to there being a burst of fruit along with good minerality. Consistent with my previous notes. Very clean and energetic with a nice finish. 91+ to 92pts.
Light gold color. This seemed rather subdued and introverted tonight. Lots of fusil with good minerality and acid, dry, medium finish. Was hoping for a little more though.
Light-medium gold color. From 375ml. This was another very energetic palate bursting with a mix of tropical and orchard fruit; good acids, a bit sweeter, peach, poached pear, pineapple, long finish. 93+pts.
Also very tasty, lots of bright tropical fruits, mineral, citrus, petrol, boistrous,long finish. Drinks a little younger than the '07 Kirschheck . 92(+)pts.
