Extraordinary nose of freshly grated lime zest and key lime pie. Over time notes of honey, flowers, tropical fruits and bay emerge. Intense, complex and long. Astoundingly good, wish I had more of this in the cellar.

SLDS October 2016: White floral notes, honey, orange - really pure and crystalline fruit profile. The balance here is sensational, with that purity shining through and the minerality of the acidity cutting through brilliantly. Excellent length, this is super now, and could well be stunning with time.

Again excellent. A little less vibrant and lively compared to Spätlese, but perfectly balanced with wonderful honeyed notes of ripe and dried fruit, flowers, minerality. Very long and lingering. 94-95+

Very complex and layered on the nose - honey, flowers, exotic fruit, spices. On the palate rich and again slightly spicy, lots of intensity and concentration. Still incredibly fresh and agile. Incredible mouthfeel - smooth, rich, creamy and very vibrant. Very very long. Outstanding. 95-96+
