Really dark colour, almost orange. Ridiculously beautiful nose, honey, ripe mirabelles, orange zest, toasty notes. The medium bodied palate is rich, intense and slightly sweet, the acidity is crazy even for this producer and vineyard. Terrific complexity and length. Will hold forever if the corks work out. 18.5/20

Though written almost 8 years ago (!) I concur with Vino Ciclismo below. Still youtfull, silex. Off dry. One wonders if the acidity will ever mellow. No need to drink now: years to go.

Alsace BYO (@ Erik): Peach flavors with a touch of cheese and salt. Good depth and a medium acidity.

clear botrytis. dry and decent minerality, fuller bodied, but the botrytis mattes out the fruit. would have preferred a cleaner pick
