  Since its release this wine has always shown a feminine purity. White flowers, White peach, minerality, little botrytis and a touch of salt. After 5 years a deeper complexity is starting to peek through. Nose shows a touch of petrol and bee’s wax with hints of yellow fruit. Palate shows firm soft acidity, good concentration, silky fruit and a more rounded flavor profile. White peaches, Spring honey suckle and golden apples still come to mind. Enjoyed at 45-55, purchased from distributor as direct import and stored accordingly. Drink now – 12 years… Na zdrowie

  Had this side by side with the Reuscher Haart.
  This Kruger was the waify sister compared to the brother who took metal shop in high school. Very floral, feminine, white field flowers, wet river stones and hints of white peach. Palate of white grapes, yellow delicious apple, hints of fresh cut white peach, white spring honey suckle. Just a touch of very clean botrytis, Very clean flavors, elegant and balanced. Enjoyed at 45-50 with grilled pork. Purchased from distributor as direct import and stored accordingly. Drink now – 15 years… Na zdrowie
