Still quite young with green apple, lemon, unripe melon and pear. On the palate more lime and grapefruit. High acidity, medium finish. Would love to taste this in 5-8 years
[Blind tasted] Shows a bit of development with lovely petrol, furthermore green apple, honey, candle wax and on the palate more lime and grapefruit. Not (yet?) as complex as I would have hoped. High acidity, medium finish. Guessed a Mosel riesling
[Blind tasted] Great riesling, full, generous, but still focused and sharp with great supporting acidity. Medium+ intensity on the nose with yellow apple, pear candy, lemon, blossom, nectarine, pineapple. Medium+ acidity with a long finish. Should be stunning in 5-10 years.
[Blind tasted] Medium+ intensity on the nose with ripe grapefruit, yellow pear, nectarine, blossom and a hint of yoghurt (?, driven by ‘sur lie’?). Medium intensity on the palate, medium bodied, medium+ acidity, medium+ finish
[Blind tasted] Medium- intensity on the nose with apple, yellow pear, stonefruit, melon, some herbs. Some of the fruit is moving into tertiary phase. Medium+ acidity, medium bodied, medium intensity, long finish.
[Blind tasted] I thought this was much older than it actually was. Based on the nose (linoleum, marmelade, some petrol, honey) I thought at least 20 years instead of 10.
[Blind tasted] Medium intensity with mostly red fruit (cherry, strawberry) and some black fruit (black berry, black currant). Medium+ acidity, medium+ tannins, medium body, medium finish. Apparently EUR 5 a bottle and considering the price an absolute steal
[Blind tasted] Deep purple. Medium+ intensity on the nose with strong new oak flavors (smokey, ash, cigars, vanilla, ceder), at the moment dominating the fruit (black cherry, kirsch, black plum). Medium+ acidity, medium tannins, long finish. Although not typically my style, I kinda liked this wine. Interesting to see how the wood will integrate over time
[Blind tasted] Medium garnet red. Medium intensity on the nose with kirsch, black cherry, candied black fruit, mocha, tobacco, humus, savoury, stewed fruit. Medium+ acidity, medium tannins, medium finish. Not bad for a 13-year old basic wine, but already over the top. Would not wait
