  Fersken, honning og mango på nese, men i munnen har sødmen mildnet og dette er i praksis en glassaktig, tørr vin med nydelig hvit frukt og bare et hint av sødme som er akkurat raust nok til å hånd om en utmerket osteservering

  No formal notes. Still going strong. Surprisingly quite youthful.

  Alcohol 8,5%, 50 g/l residual sugar, 8,9 g/l acidity.
  
  Dense, deep and concentrated honeyed yellow color. Super-attractive, complex and beautifully matured nose with layered aromas of chopeed walnuts, caramel, some burnt sugar, a little bit of grated ginger, a hint of candied lemon and a touch of dried apricots. The wine feels very complex, medium-to-moderately full-boded and more medium-dry than medium-sweet on the palate with nuanced and somewhat tertiary flavors of sweet candied lemon and lemon curd, some freshly picked red apples, light caramel character, a little bit of exotic spices, a hint of dried peach and a touch of beeswax. The age is slowly starting to show and it has made the mouthfeel very smooth, even oily, yet there is high enough acidity that one could happily call this wine wine "racy". Stunning balance, really. The finish is crisp and lively with very long, vibrant flavors of caramel, some mushroomy tertiary character, a little bit of lemon marmalade, a hint of honey and a touch of developed saline minerality.
  
  A perfect, wonderfully developed Spätlese of the highest quality. Incredible depth, intensity and complexity here with an acid structure that masks away the sweetness - already partially hidden by the age - remarkably well. In out 12-wine tasting of Mosel Rieslings from 2014 to 1994, this was my wine of the night. Although somewhat mature already, I can imagine this wine will continue to develop for some time. No need to hurry. Spectacular value at 45,27€.

  Mineralsk, lettbeint, sitrus, noe tropisk, tørket frukt. Bra konsentrasjon, mye syre, elegant, balansert kosevin. Ikke så lang. 90
