At Forslundska, after a Pinot Noir tasting with DVI. Next to Zilliken Rausch Auslese GK 2010. This one had a pear fruit focus and was a lot thinner than the Zilliken, not necessarily in a bad way, more depending on your preference.

Very drinkable at the moment. So concentrated. Apple, pear, peach, abricot, candied ginger etc. - no botrytis. A very nice acidity, luckily. Will hold forever.

Delicate and fresh including notes of kerosene. I loved it. However as the choice for the Dessert - recommended by the sommelier - it was a disaster. Very sweet Rhubarb with ice. The wine completely lost it's intensity and faded away - 84/100p. He should have recommended a Beeren Auslese or Trocken beeren Auslese with more concentration

All whitefruit on the nose: pear, melon and peach coupled with citrus and floral qualities. You can almost "smell" the acidity. Medium bodied (7.5% ABV) with apple, pear and peach upfront. Mid-body shows considerably more depth, more peach, apricot and orange notes and hints of all the tropical fruit behind that are currently concealed. Backside shows a combination of citrus (lemon and lime), tart whitefruit and simply tremendous acidity. Not quite electric, but very close. Just the smallest touch of honey through the middle into the backside - you know this is an auslese based on richness, density and profile not overt sweetness at this stage. Almost a crime to open this so young as it will take years for the mid-body to fully open up and the complexity that it's hinting at now will be worth the wait. Next bottle for me no earlier than July 2022, perhaps later.

Sehr guter Wein, aber so hoch wie er bei Mosel Fine Wine und auch von Gault Millau gehandelt wird ist er für mich nicht - oder zumindest noch nicht. Für meinen persönlichen Geschmack kommt die Süße für eine Auslese nicht deutlich genug durch. Vor allem der Nachgeschmack im Mund ist nicht wirklich süß (Was für nicht "süß" Trinker ja auch toll sein könnte). Auch fehlt ihm leider etwas außergewöhnliches um ihn höher zu bewerten. Ich könnte mir aber durchaus vorstellen diesen Wein in einigen Jahren mehr Punkte geben zu können, denn er ist komplex, gut gemacht und hat auch ein super Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.
