When to drink: 2018 to 2045
2017 Vintage
Tasted: Feb 2019
Mittleres Gelbgrün, Silberreflexe. Angenehmes Bukett von reifen gelben Birnen, ein Hauch von Orangenzesten, zarter Blütenhonig, noch etwas verhalten. Komplex, ausgewogen, frischer gelber Apfel, dezente Säurestruktur, feine Extraktsüße, sauber, zarte Mineralität, ein Hauch von Zitrus im Finale, vielseitig einsetzbarer Wein.
2017 Vintage
Tasted: Nov 2018
When to drink: 2018 to 2024
Edle Aromatik mit gelben Früchten, auch Nektarinen, dazu Wiesenblumen, Heu und Kaminrauch. Auch am Gaumen zurückhaltend, aber subtil und dicht gewoben, mit viel Finesse.
