  Veldig moden honningmelon og fine honningtoner på duft, og også i munnen hvor de kombineres med en herlig frisk men nå avrunda syre. Deilig, nesten sursøt følelse i finish, selv om vinen er helt tørr. Super digg!

  PnP'ed. Brought this as a back-up btl to a ABC (Anything but Chardonnay) theme'd dinner. As it was still early by the time we drank thr' the line-up, we decided to open this as well (non-blinded). First-pour nosed a bit "stale", even very faint hints of being corked. Blew off apparently with air. This appeared to be mature. Nosed of tropical fruits and a bit of honey. Palate was however, dry, somewhat broad with still sufficient freshness/acidity & minerality to be had. Still nice to drink, but don't think this will improve any further (but will probably hold for the next few years), so it should be alright to drink-up...

  Several recent bottles of the 2010 von der fels have felt quite evolved with low acidity and sweet notes of honey. Since I had several bottles in a row displaying these properties I thought it the natural evolution of the wine. Well, it’s now clear that the curse of premox does not limit itself to burgundies. This bottle is sooo much fresher with a lovely cut to the acidity, tingling, chalky minerals, lemon, apple, pear and, sure, a drop of honey too. Much more complex, and, first and foremost, alive! Great stuff!

  Final bottle from a half case purchased in 2011. Mature but lively appearance, full straw yellow colour with golden reflections; the aromas and flavours are completely mature (orchard fruit, pineapple, butter), and the palate is quite broad (even at only 12% ABV), but the acidity feels cold and steely, and this leaves an overall impression of disjointedness. Drink up. To me, this is a further indication that 2010 may not be as great in Germany as many think. The wines are (were) very exciting, with lots of tension and energy, but in the final analysis they were the product of an unbalanced growing season. Perhaps this means that they (some / many) lack the balance for a really long life?
