To me this is what Riesling is about. Pure fruit character, petrol, and minerality. The wine showcased stone fruits in its most elegant from. This together with the minerality and petroleum makes it an incredibly captivating nose. However, for me, it is the palate where this wine really blew me away. The level of fruit purity, acidity, citric and salinity and the overall balance is just insane. This was obviously too young but you are drinking this wine now, give it 1 hour of decant prior. I have to try this again.

Very mineral, intense electric acidic structure. Very primary fruit, needs time but such a gut punch to drink now. Fantastic. Incredibly memorable. Hard to find the words, really.

HDH auction at avec (Chicago, IL): Wow. Leagues better than other fresh CSH that I've had. I love the mineral brightness and the intensity here. Delicate and light, with lots of good freshness. I love the laser focus of this.

Intense and steely with a firm mineral spine, complexity on the palate, ripping acidity, and a taut, but elegant structure. Everything is balanced on a wire here; incredible tension and freshness. Love this.
