95 Points

Thursday, November 11, 2021 - Bottle opened about 1h before consumption.

12% Alc., clear pale yellow color.

Nose: Ripe apricot fruit, fine honey, some minerality, a touch lemon, imo still a bit closed. Smells typical for a Riesling on the sweet side, but a very very good one with sufficient acidity.

Palate: The first impression reminds of an outstanding sweet wine. But this is analytical still dry although hardly less than 9 gr. residual sugar. Richness and yellow fruit, honey aromas you can only taste in the very best sweet wines, nonetheless lively with perfect natural acid leading to an animating not tiresome drinking flow, already good complexity. Riesling at its best on the semi dry level. Real class, will surely perform on this level at least 10 more years and has imo everything to improve even further. Perfect together with spicy Asian food.

2015 is considered to be one of the vintages of the century at the Moselle Saar and Ruwer region with high levels of ripeness, extract and acidity.
