93 Points

Thursday, October 9, 2014 - Grand Sich and the Eiswein Show: botrytis very present here - nose of sweet apricot and lychee syrup, and some apple pie. dry mid becoming sweeter toward the finish - still very much a dessert wine. With some time - it showed more fruit and power - gaining tropical notes and a hint of spice. Sadly not as exuberant as the Goldert was, but a great wine in its own right. long silky finish gives it the feel of a well aged Sauternes.

after 3 days in a half-bottle in the fridge - the wine opened up a lot more. richer mid with better balance. amazing aromatics... this is still a baby i guess!! (went from 91 to 93)
