Very enjoyable Auslese with a good balance between sweetness and acidity. The bouquet offers an array of tropical fruit, caramel notes, slight petrol and some buttery nuttiness. Medium to full bodied it has quite a good length and will last easily for another decade.

Nose of apricots and tropical fruits (mango and pineapple). Sweet, but surprisingly (to me) not overly so; sort of a delicate honeyed flavor, indicating good balance, and not syrupy. Again, with the acid balance, it did not feel rich, but it still had depth and length. Very nice overall.

Bright golden color. Pears, apples, citrus, honey, minerals with a long lingering finish. Lots of acidity and sweetness with many years ahead.

Terry Theise Wines: Ripe and balanced but probably closed down a little.
