  Möglicherweise jetzt über den ‚point‘. Nicht überragend und von Sauvignon Blanc wenig zu spüren.

  Hotel Ai Pini, Armentarola, Alta badia- Our hotel in this skiing area for nearly twenty years and also here you can find some wine secrets. This Winkl was very good, showing a nice development with some peach and grassy elements combined, lovely bitters, a nice core, good acidity and no gooseberries. In the finish some alcohol was noticeable.

  Great nose, which opens up to mirabelle plums, stone fruits, some honey, herbal tea, citrus thyme and crushed stone. Full-bodied and on the more powerful side. Mouth-watering acidity and a good attack with ripe stone fruits, yellow gooseberries, herbal blend paired with a salty minerality, that accompany the long finish. This is in a really good spot and drinking rather well right now.
  
  Tolle Nase! Mirabelle, Steinobst, etwas Honig, Kräutertee, Zitronenthymian und zermahlene Steine. Kraftvoll und körperreich. Guter Trinkfluss, dank der frischen Säure. Am Gaumen reifes Steinobst, gelbe Stachelbeere, saftige Kräuterwürze und wieder eine salzig-mineralische Note. Langer Abgang. Der ist momentan voll da und macht viel Spaß.

  Forward nose of green peppers and grass with just a touch of pineapple. Palate is clean and finish decent.

  Served pnp, along with Fettuccine verde and Gambas al ajillo. This wine always manages to deliver. In the nose I am greeted by lemon peel and citrus thyme. After some aeration there is also yellow and green gooseberry, some pomelo, stone fruits and white blossoms. First of all, though, there is almost always a distinct mineral tendency, that reminds me strongly of limestone - and sometimes also even of Silex (Flint). This bottle of 2012 Winkl showed very well, with a medium body, hefty but well-integrated alcohol at 13,5 abv. and a taut, vigorous acidity. The palate was mostly dominated by a mineral relish at first, which was then followed by notes of yellow fruits, mirabelle plum, Granny-Smith-Apple, kiwi and pomelo, with an excellent and luscious aftertaste and long finish.
  
  Zu grünen Fettuccine mit Gambas al ajillo. Dieser Wein ist einfach eine Bank und schafft es meistens abzuliefern. In der Nase treffe ich auf Zitronenschale und Zitronenthymian, dann gelbe und grüne Stachelbeere, etwas Pomelo, Steinobst und weiße Blüten. Vor allem aber eine ausgeprägte mineralische Komponente, welche mich stark an Kalkstein und Feuerstein erinnert. Am Gaumen zeigt sich der 12-er Winkl mit mittlerem Körper, kräftigem aber gut integriertem Alkohol (bei 13,5 %-Vol) und einer straffen, animierenden Säure. Eine feine mineralische Würze dominiert zunächst, danach folgen Aromen von gelben Früchten, Mirabelle, Granny-Smith-Apfel, Kiwi und Pomelo. Eine feine Extraktsüße begleitet den langen Abgang.
