  In der Nase reifes Steinobst, etwas Apfel, etwas Limette mit Zesten. Dazu — vor allem mit reichlich Luft — auch deutlich Melone. Dominiert wird es allerdings von reichlich Schieferwürze dazu etwas Assam-Tee und viel Hefe.
  
  Am Gaumen recht cremig, insgesamt gutes Süße-Säure-Spiel, wobei die Süße für meinen Geschmack etwas zu sehr dominiert. Sehr feine, griffige, eher dunkle und pikante Mineralik. Insgesamt sehr gute Haptik, hier auch mit leichter Schwarztee-Assoziation.
  
  Sehr guter Abgang, gute Länge.
  
  Insgesamt eher fein und vielschichtig.

  Soooooo.... What the f(uck) is not to like!!!
  
  I have a thing for this producer and for their sweet Rieslings. It's so well made, so delicious, so sweet, so fresh, so much of everything that you just want more. And when 3 bottle "disappear" in one night for three people - you know that this stuff, is insanely good!
  
  The nose and palate are exactly the same, no difference.
  Red apple, pear, lemon, sugar, tropic fruits like pineapple, melon and so on. All these seems to be covered in layer of honey.
  Its mineral, its soft.
  The acidity is WAY more soft and low key then the Auslese, which is great.
  
  I could drink this with anything. Chocolate cake, chips, steak, tapas, on its own, with a croissant, chicken pie etc.
  It's perfect for everything - if you're having a light meal, it suits great and if you're having a heavy/fat dinner, it's refreshing your palate in the most beautiful way.
  
  It's perfect and I'm glad that I bought 12 bottles. If I'm going to experience what an old Fritz Haag Riesling tastes like, I will be lucky, because these wines does not last 15-20 years in this house (nor 5 years)
  
  100P - I'm in love

  With leftover holiday dinner. Pale yellow in color. Lemon zest and apple on the nose. In the mouth, sweet white peaches, citrus, a nuance of slate and a touch of salt. Nice acidity sweetness balance. Likely to become even more complex over the next decade, but too delicious a food wine to currently resist.
