ABV: 13.5%. Gorgeous nose of guava and green apples mixed with white pepper and flinty minerality. The integrated acidity is crisp and refreshing, highlighting the fruits on the palate and extending the lengthy finish. This wine will definitely improve with a few more years, but I think it has a long life ahead. I'd suggest to refrain from opening your bottle until the 10-year mark (2026).

Loads of petrol on the nose that blows off after a while to reveal aromas of candied lemon and fresh nectarine. Dry on the palate, with only the slightest hint of sweetness, and as I'm finding out with this producer the star of the show is the purity of fruit. Beautiful, concentrated notes of Meyer lemon, nectarine, and McIntosh apple lead the way, supported by intense minerality throughout. This is a killer Mosel value.

Horribly reductive. Rotten eggs for days. Literally. Left the bottle open on the counter and wine in the glass for a full 24 hours. Wasn’t even beginning to blow off.

Comienza con cierta reducción. Es un vino más directo, menos "cálido", hay matices de ciruela amarilla y cierta mineralidad que es boca resulta casi salina, acidez marcada, casi eléctrica, mineral y bien perfilado. Pizarra azul.

Petrol and slate nose. Citrus and apple fruit. Dry but not bone dry. Solid value.

Delicious with smoked whitefish. Where did the notes go?

End of year party (West Windsor, New Jersey): I do not know why I do not have any notes for this wine!
