Aroma of sweet stone fruit (peach, apricot); a few exotic aromas; slightly smoky-tobacco and wet stone; very nice nose!
Very juicy and fruity on the palate with a clearly sweet core; some caramel; lots of melting and creaminess; beautiful light minerality; then comes a very lively, lemony acidity that is not particularly well integrated; some grip from the tannins at the end; medium-long finish.
The wine lacks some of the depth and complexity that I expect from a Grosses Gewächs.

This is coming together as a full bodied, quite powerfull rieslng, speaking of the terroir, concentrated, a bit creamy, with mineral notes, a core of citrus and a great balance and length, This will go on, of course, but seems open for business. #Kandestederne#SR

Decent GG riesling, but not at all on par with comparable Nahe estates. While beautiful on the nose, the fruit lacks the nerve and depth in the mouth expected from a GG. Given the vintage, this was a disappointment, but overall an OK effort. 90?
