    Nose: Clean, with pronounced intensity aromas of citrus fruit of lemon, stone fruit of peach, tropical fruit of pineapple, mineral notes of stony and saline, maturity notes of petrol and honey, floral notes of honeysuckle, sweet spice of ginger. The wine is developing.

    Conclusion: Very good quality German Riesling with an amazing nose of great intensity, showing good complexity with fruit, mineral and profound development characters, with everything in good balance and harmony.
