93pts (after decanting). Bottle #3102 according to its rear label. It is still very young - so make sure to decant it. But after some air there were lots and lots of notes: mint, Sicilian lemon, green pineapple, grapefruit, and lime. Bone dry, with a medium body and with good spiciness. This is not really a wine of minerality, but it is long. I'd rather let it rest for 5+ years before opening another bottle.

blind Still at the beginning of his wine career but very drinkable. I'm a big fan of the acidity driven and austere vintage. Still a lot to come but even now balanced. Powerful with a lot of grip and salinity. 93+

Paired with sichuan dinner- crisp acidity cut very well through the peppercorns and cumin.

Elegant, balanced, mineral nose and rewarding taste. Already very good. Beats the Bassermann-Jordan GG we tasted at the same time hands down.
