Similar to my last bottle, but perhaps without as much tension and focus. Perhaps because it was tasted after a very crisp cava? Still, fine fruit with hints of minerality poking through.

While this seems more like a Spatlese, it is a pretty darn good Spatlese, with more than enough acids to counterbalance the fruit and sweetness. Pungent apple, cherry and citrus fruits, with notes of slate on a structure of very fine acids. This possessed a lip pursing, lengthy, focused finish. Loved it.

No detailed notes, but this was showing its typical quality. Lots of green apple fruit and pronounced acidity (but this isn't 2010 territory). Great QPR as usual but will undoubtedly have much more to give with a few years on its side.

Riper fruit on the nose than I typically expect from a kabinett, with notes of macerated green apple and tropical fruit and healthy minerality, similar palate with medium acidity and finish length, feel this punches above its weight for the price

Ripe fruit- peach, citrus- lime, floral, bright. Good acidity. Lingering finish. Really enjoyable.
