  Perfect bottle. The color was amazingly young: pale yellow color. Exactly like the 2013 Halenberg we had before.
  Fully developed, medium+ intense nose. Classic Zilliken. You either love it or hate it. Petrol, smoke, peat, slate combined in a unique and deeply complex melange. I really love it!
  On the palate almost dry. The sweetness has blended in, the medium+ acidity is still perfectly integrated. Beautiful mineral notes, yellow stone fruit, some petrol, hints of peat and smoke. Long. We wondered and discussed, how this bottle will continue to age. Under perfect storage conditions, I would give it at least another decade… 92-93. My best bottle of the three that I bought.
