N: Very elegant, mango, lichee, maracuja, cool and aristocratic mineral nuances, like a kings castle in Portugal after a rain shower...in the sun :) T: to the point , those guys know how to do it, must visit the Vinyard soon. This is the second bottle that I had the honor to drink, fat and furious ;)

Blindverkostung mit Freunden. #3 Gelbe Früchte, grüne und gelbe Stachelbeere, Ananas, pink Grapefruit, Marille, Orangenschale, grüne Netzmelone und rauchig in der Nase. Viel Extrakt im Mund, mit leichter Glycerinnote, reifen, gelben Früchten und einer sehr präsenten rauchig-salzigen Mineralität. Frische aber auch gepufferte Säure, Kräuterwürze, körperreich, erkennbare jedoch gut verpackte 14 Vol.-%. Sehr langer Abgang. Zeigt sich mir zum ersten Mal deutlich offener als in den vergangenen 2 Jahren.
Blind tasting with friends. #3 Yellow fruits, green and yellow gooseberries, pineapple, pink grapefruit, yellow peach, orange peel, green netted melon and smoky on the nose. Lots of extract on the palate, with a slight note of glycerin, ripe yellow fruits and an ever-present smoky-salty minerality. Vivid but also buffered acidity, spiciness, full-bodied, noticeable but well-integrated 14 % abv. Very long finish. This bottle has been the most approachable one in the last 2 years and it seems to finally come around.

Kleur: Licht strogeel Aroma / bouquet: Citrus, vooral limoen. Subtiele hint van fris tropisch fruit. Lichte mineraliteit, vuursteen. Grassig. Smaak / Afdronk: Verfrissende zuurgraad in combinatie met een rond en filmend mondgevoel, geconcentreerd, indrukwekkend lange afdronk. Algemeen / potentieel: Sauvignon Blanc met concentratie en 'dikte', een unieke en heerlijke combinatie. Eén van mijn favoriete SB's. 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 11 + Smaak / Afdronk: 16 + Algemeen / potentieel: 8 = 90/100

Color: Light straw yellow Aroma / bouquet: citrus, especially lime. Subtle hint of fresh tropical fruit. Slight minerality, flint. Grassy. Taste / Finish: Refreshing acidity in combination with a round mouthfeel and filming, concentrated, impressively long finish. General / potential: Sauvignon Blanc with concentration and 'thickness', a unique and delicious combination. One of my favorite SBs. 50 + Color: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 11 + Taste / Finish: 16 + General / potential: 8 = 90/100

Darker yellow colour, rich ripe aroma, rich taste, good acidity, nice to drink now, could still age because of the acidity and aromatic power
